Subject: tracing: Disable tracers before deletion of instance
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6b450d2533e2c1c71fbe7f1bdce0bb1c9f813030;p=linux-beck.git

tracing: Disable tracers before deletion of instance

When an instance is about to be deleted, make sure the tracer
is set to nop. If it isn't reset the tracer and set it to the nop
tracer, otherwise memory leaks and bad pointers may result.
