Linus Torvalds 622a3ed1ac Various fixes for tracing:
- Fix tp_printk command line option crashing the kernel
 
   With the code that can handle a buffer from a previous boot, the
   trace_check_vprintf() needed access to the delta of the address
   space used by the old buffer and the current buffer. To do so,
   the trace_array (tr) parameter was used. But when tp_printk is
   enabled on the kernel command line, no trace buffer is used and
   the trace event is sent directly to printk(). That meant the tr
   field of the iterator descriptor was NULL, and since tp_printk still
   uses trace_check_vprintf() it caused a NULL dereference.
 
 - Add ptrace.h include to x86 ftrace file for completeness
 
 - Fix rtla installation when done with out-of-tree build
 
 - Fix the help messages in rtla that were incorrect
 
 - Several fixes to fix races with the timerlat and hwlat code
 
   Several locking issues were discovered with the coordination
   between timerlat kthread creation and hotplug. As timerlat has
   callbacks from hotplug code to start kthreads when CPUs come online.
   There are also locking issues with grabbing the cpu_read_lock()
   and the locks within timerlat.
