[PATCH 4.4 127/135] tracing: Fix event trigger to accept redundant spaces

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Mon Jun 29 2020 - 17:15:36 EST


From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 6784beada631800f2c5afd567e5628c843362cee upstream.

Fix the event trigger to accept redundant spaces in
the trigger input.

For example, these return -EINVAL

echo " traceon" > events/ftrace/print/trigger
echo "traceon if common_pid == 0" > events/ftrace/print/trigger
echo "disable_event:kmem:kmalloc " > events/ftrace/print/trigger

But these are hard to find what is wrong.

To fix this issue, use skip_spaces() to remove spaces
in front of actual tokens, and set NULL if there is no
token.
