This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tracing: Miscellaneous fixes for trace_array ref counting to the 3.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: tracing-miscellaneous-fixes-for-trace_array-ref-counting.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From f77d09a384676bde6445413949d9d2c508ff3e62 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Z Lam <azl@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2013 11:18:44 -0700 Subject: tracing: Miscellaneous fixes for trace_array ref counting From: Alexander Z Lam <azl@xxxxxxxxxx> commit f77d09a384676bde6445413949d9d2c508ff3e62 upstream. Some error paths did not handle ref counting properly, and some trace files need ref counting.
