From b0c40f8a7a0e92c62178c552238ea2ba3754808d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Namhyung Kim Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2020 00:25:10 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] perf jevents: Fix suspicious code in fixregex() [ Upstream commit e62458e3940eb3dfb009481850e140fbee183b04 ] The new string should have enough space for the original string and the back slashes IMHO.
