Subject: ftrace: break out modify loop immediately on detection of error
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4377245aa93b65b6597e4b7bb460fb9abc48b56b;p=linux-beck.git

ftrace: break out modify loop immediately on detection of error

Impact: added precaution on failure detection

Break out of the modifying loop as soon as a failure is detected.
This is just an added precaution found by code review and was not
found by any bug chasing.
