[PATCH v2] tracing: fix referencing after memory freeing and refactors code
From: Geyslan G. Bem
Date: Wed Nov 06 2013 - 14:08:47 EST
In 'system_tr_open()':
Fix possible 'dir' assignment after freeing it.
In both functions:
Restructures logic conditions testing 'tracing_is_disabled()'
return before the others tests.
