[PATCH v2 4/4] tracing: Fix number printing bug in print_synth_event()
From: Tom Zanussi
Date: Fri Feb 14 2020 - 17:56:58 EST
Fix a varargs-related bug in print_synth_event() which resulted in
strange output and oopses on 32-bit x86 systems. The problem is that
trace_seq_printf() expects the varargs to match the format string, but
print_synth_event() was always passing u64 values regardless. This
results in unspecified behavior when unpacking with va_arg() in
trace_seq_printf().
Add a function that takes the size into account when calling
trace_seq_printf().
