From: Naveen N. Rao <naveen.n.rao@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 5b0022dd32b7c2e15edf1827ba80aa1407edf9ff upstream. In register_ftrace_function_probe(), we are not checking the return value of alloc_and_copy_ftrace_hash(). The subsequent call to ftrace_match_records() may end up dereferencing the same. Add a check to ensure this doesn't happen.
