[PATCH 2/2] tracing: Use free_percpu instead of kfree
From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Sat Oct 03 2009 - 09:47:57 EST
In the event->profile_enable() failure path, we release the per cpu
buffers using kfree which is wrong because they are per cpu pointers.
Although free_percpu only wraps kfree for now, that may change in the
future so lets use the correct way.
