[for-next][PATCH 10/10] tracing: Fix rcu handling of event_trigger_data filter field

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Mon Dec 23 2013 - 16:40:24 EST


From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

The filter field of the event_trigger_data structure is protected under
RCU sched locks. It was not annotated as such, and after doing so,
sparse pointed out several locations that required fix ups.
