[for-linus][PATCH 0/6] tracing: Fixes for 6.3

[Steven Rostedt]

Tracing fixes for 6.3:

- Fix timerlat notification, as it was not triggering the
  notify to users when a new max latency was hit.

- Do not trigger max latency if the tracing is off.
  When tracing is off, the ring buffer is not updated, it
  does not make sense to notify when there's a new max latency
  detected by the tracer, as why that latency happened is not available.
  The tracing logic still runs when the ring buffer is disabled, but
  it should not be triggering notifications.

- Fix race on freeing the synthetic event "last_cmd" variable by
  adding a mutex around it.

- Fix race between reader and writer of the ring buffer by adding
  memory barriers. When the writer is still on the reader page
  it must have its content visible on the buffer before it moves
  the commit index that the reader uses to know how much content is
  on the page.

- Make get_lock_parent_ip() always inlined, as it uses _THIS_IP_
  and _RET_IP_, which gets broken if it is not inlined.

- Make __field(int, arr[5]) in a TRACE_EVENT() macro fail to build.
  The field formats of trace events are calculated by using sizeof(type)
  and other means by what is passed into the structure macros like
  __field(). The __field() macro is only meant for atom types like
  int, long, short, pointer, etc. It is not meant for arrays. But
  the code will currently compile with arrays, but then the format
  produced will be inaccurate, and user space parsing tools will break.
  Two bugs have already been fixed, now add code that will make the
  kernel fail to build if another trace event includes this buggy
  field format.
