3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 46ef2be0d1d5ccea0c41bb606143586daadd537c upstream. tracing_buffers_open() is racy, the memory inode->i_private points to can be already freed. Change debugfs_create_file("trace_pipe_raw", data) caller to pass "data = tr", tracing_buffers_open() can use tracing_get_cpu(). Change debugfs_create_file("snapshot_raw_fops", data) caller too, this file uses tracing_buffers_open/release.
