[PATCH 0/7] tracing: Hist trigger var-ref cleanup and comments

[Tom Zanussi]

From: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi,

This patchset is a standalone series broken out of the v8 version of
the 'tracing: Hist trigger snapshot and onchange additions' patchset.

It's a series of changes resulting from some suggestions from Namhyung
for making the variable-reference handling code more understandable
through some refactoring and comments.

It also added a new patch changing all strlen() to sizeof() for string
constants, in trace_events_hist.c

Also, in the 'tracing: Remove open-coding of hist trigger var_ref
management' patch, in create_var_ref(), moved the saving of ref_field
and update of ref_field->var_ref_idx into the 'if' as pointed out by
Dan Carpenter/smatch 0-day robot.

It doesn't introduce any functional changes and can be applied
independently of the other patchset.

Tom
