ftrace: Using FTRACE_WARN_ON() to check "freed record" in ftrace_release()
"Because when we call ftrace_free_rec we change the rec->ip to point to the next record in the chain. Something is very wrong if rec->ip >= s && rec->ip < e and the record is already free." "Note, use FTRACE_WARN_ON() macro. This way it shuts down ftrace if it is hit and helps to avoid further damage later." -- Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Zhao Lei <zhaolei@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
