[PATCH v2 3/3] tracing: Disable snapshot buffer when stopping instance tracers

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Tue Dec 05 2023 - 17:00:00 EST


From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

It use to be that only the top level instance had a snapshot buffer (for
latency tracers like wakeup and irqsoff). When stopping a tracer in an
instance would not disable the snapshot buffer. This could have some
unintended consequences if the irqsoff tracer is enabled.

Consolidate the tracing_start/stop() with tracing_start/stop_tr() so that
all instances behave the same. The tracing_start/stop() functions will
just call their respective tracing_start/stop_tr() with the global_array
passed in.
