From: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit ac6c1b2ca77e722a1e5d651f12f437f2f237e658 upstream. When a ftrace_bug happens (where ftrace fails to modify a location) it is helpful to have what was at that location as well as what was expected to be there. But with the conversion to text_poke() the variable that assigns the expected for debugging was dropped. Unfortunately, I noticed this when I needed it. Add it back.
