[PATCH 0/7][RESEND] tracing: Fix bugs in string filters.

From: Li Zefan
Date: Wed Jan 13 2010 - 21:52:46 EST


This patchset fixes some bugs in string filters. Those bugs
affect both ftrace and perf-trace.

A new string helper strnstr() is introduced, to be used in
middle matching callback.

Also I add some comments to mainly explain why we should use
length-limited version of strstr() and strcmp().
