[PATCH for-4.10] pstore: don't OOPS when there are no ftrace zones

From: Brian Norris
Date: Thu Feb 09 2017 - 01:51:15 EST


We'll OOPS in ramoops_get_next_prz() if the platform didn't ask for any
ftrace zones (i.e., cxt->fprzs will be NULL). Let's just skip this
entire FTRACE section if there's no 'fprzs'.

Regression seen on a coreboot/depthcharge-based Chromebook.

Sorry for the late notice, but I just booted 4.10 on a Chromebook. This also
may not be the "perfect" fix, but it's what I scrounged up in 5 minutes today.
