Linus Torvalds f44d5c4890 Various tracing fixes:
- Fix a crash when having function tracing and function stack tracing on
    the command line. The ftrace trampolines are created as executable and
    read only. But the stack tracer tries to modify them with text_poke()
    which expects all kernel text to still be writable at boot.
    Keep the trampolines writable at boot, and convert them to read-only
    with the rest of the kernel.
 
  - A selftest was triggering in the ring buffer iterator code, that
    is no longer valid with the update of keeping the ring buffer
    writable while a iterator is reading. Just bail after three failed
    attempts to get an event and remove the warning and disabling of the
    ring buffer.
 
  - While modifying the ring buffer code, decided to remove all the
    unnecessary BUG() calls.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
