[RFC PATCH v4 19/34] ftrace: don't update record flags if code modification fail.

From: Wang Nan
Date: Mon Mar 02 2015 - 09:33:35 EST


X86 and common ftrace_replace_code() behave differently.

In x86, rec->flags get updated only when (almost) all works are done. In
common code, rec->flags is updated before code modification, and never
get restored when code modification fails.

This patch ensures rec->flags kept its original value if
ftrace_replace_code() fail. A later patch will correct that function
for x86.
