[PATCH 2/8] ftrace: Fix possible NULL dereferencing in __ftrace_hash_rec_update

From: Jiri Olsa
Date: Wed Dec 21 2011 - 06:52:04 EST


We need to check the existence of the other_hash before
we touch its count variable.

This issue is hit only when non global ftrace_ops is used.
The global ftrace_ops is initialized with empty hashes.
