From 6a10108bdbbfb66e5c431fd1056534e9717d34eb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Namhyung Kim Date: Mon, 14 Oct 2013 17:24:25 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] ftrace: Narrow down the protected area of graph_lock The parser set up is just a generic utility that uses local variables allocated by the function. There's no need to hold the graph_lock for this set up. This also makes the code simpler.
