[PATCH 4/7] tracing: reset iterator in t_start()

From: Li Zefan
Date: Tue Jun 23 2009 - 21:53:01 EST


The iterator is m->private, but it's not reset to trace_types in
t_start(). If the output is larger than PAGE_SIZE and t_start()
is called the 2nd time, things will go wrong.

[ Impact: fix output of current_tracer if it's larger than PAGE_SIZE ]
