As the seq_buf->len will soon be +1 size when there's an overflow, we
must use trace_seq_used() or seq_buf_used() methods to get the real
length. This will prevent buffer overflow issues if just the len
of the seq_buf descriptor is used to copy memory.

The function tracing_fill_pipe_page() logic is a little confusing with the
use of count saving the seq.len and reusing it.
Instead of subtracting a number that is calculated from the saved
value of the seq.len from seq.len, just save the seq.len at the start
and if we need to reset it, just assign it again.
When the seq_buf overflow is len == size + 1, the current logic will
break. Changing it to use a saved length for resetting back to the
original value is more robust and will work when we change the way
seq_buf sets the overflow.

If the trace_seq of ftrace_raw_output_prep() is full this function
returns TRACE_TYPE_PARTIAL_LINE, otherwise it returns zero.
The problem is that TRACE_TYPE_PARTIAL_LINE happens to be zero!
The thing is, the caller of ftrace_raw_output_prep() expects a
success to be zero. Change that to expect it to be
TRACE_TYPE_HANDLED.

The trace_seq_printf() and friends are used to store strings into a buffer
that can be passed around from function to function. If the trace_seq buffer
fills up, it will not print any more. The return values were somewhat
inconsistant and using trace_seq_has_overflowed() was a better way to know
if the write to the trace_seq buffer succeeded or not.
Now that all users have removed reading the return value of the printf()
type functions, they can safely return void and keep future users of them
from reading the inconsistent values as well.

The functions trace_seq_printf() and friends will not be returning values
soon and will be void functions. To know if they succeeded or not, the
functions trace_seq_has_overflowed() and trace_handle_return() should be
used instead.

The return values for trace_seq_printf() and friends are going to be
removed and they will become void functions. The mmio tracer checked
their return and even did so incorrectly.
Some of the funtions which returned the values were never checked
themselves. Removing all the checks simplifies the code.
Use trace_seq_has_overflowed() and trace_handle_return() where
necessary instead.

Instead of doing individual checks all over the place that makes the code
very messy. Just check trace_seq_has_overflowed() at the end or in
strategic places.
This makes the code much cleaner and also helps with getting closer
to removing the return values of trace_seq_printf() and friends.

The branch tracer should not be checking the trace_seq_printf() return value
as that will soon be void. There's a new trace_handle_return() helper function
that will return TRACE_TYPE_PARTIAL_LINE if the trace_seq overflowed
and TRACE_TYPE_HANDLED otherwise.

Remove checking the return value of all trace_seq_puts(). It was wrong
anyway as only the last return value mattered. But as the trace_seq_puts()
is going to be a void function in the future, we should not be checking
the return value of it anyway.
Just return !trace_seq_has_overflowed() instead.

Checking the return code of every trace_seq_printf() operation and having
to return early if it overflowed makes the code messy.
Using the new trace_seq_has_overflowed() and trace_handle_return() functions
allows us to clean up the code.
In the future, trace_seq_printf() and friends will be turning into void
functions and not returning a value. The trace_seq_has_overflowed() is to
be used instead. This cleanup allows that change to take place.

Adding a trace_seq_has_overflowed() which returns true if the trace_seq
had too much written into it allows us to simplify the code.
Instead of checking the return value of every call to trace_seq_printf()
and friends, they can all be called normally, and at the end we can
return !trace_seq_has_overflowed() instead.
Several functions also return TRACE_TYPE_PARTIAL_LINE when the trace_seq
overflowed and TRACE_TYPE_HANDLED otherwise. Another helper function
was created called trace_handle_return() which takes a trace_seq and
returns these enums. Using this helper function also simplifies the
code.
This change also makes it possible to remove the return values of
trace_seq_printf() and friends. They should instead just be
void functions.

In trace_seq_bitmask() it calls bitmap_scnprintf() not from the current
position of the trace_seq buffer (s->buffer + s->len), but instead from
the beginning of the buffer (s->buffer).
Luckily, the only user of this "ipi_raise tracepoint" uses it as the
first parameter, and as such, the start of the temp buffer in
include/trace/ftrace.h (see __get_bitmask()).

Stack traces that happen from function tracing check if the address
on the stack is a __kernel_text_address(). That is, is the address
kernel code. This calls core_kernel_text() which returns true
if the address is part of the builtin kernel code. It also calls
is_module_text_address() which returns true if the address belongs
to module code.
But what is missing is ftrace dynamically allocated trampolines.
These trampolines are allocated for individual ftrace_ops that
call the ftrace_ops callback functions directly. But if they do a
stack trace, the code checking the stack wont detect them as they
are neither core kernel code nor module address space.
Adding another field to ftrace_ops that also stores the size of
the trampoline assigned to it we can create a new function called
is_ftrace_trampoline() that returns true if the address is a
dynamically allocate ftrace trampoline. Note, it ignores trampolines
that are not dynamically allocated as they will return true with
the core_kernel_text() function.

The function probe counting for traceon and traceoff suffered a race
condition where if the probe was executing on two or more CPUs at the
same time, it could decrement the counter by more than one when
disabling (or enabling) the tracer only once.
The way the traceon and traceoff probes are suppose to work is that
they disable (or enable) tracing once per count. If a user were to
echo 'schedule:traceoff:3' into set_ftrace_filter, then when the
schedule function was called, it would disable tracing. But the count
should only be decremented once (to 2). Then if the user enabled tracing
again (via tracing_on file), the next call to schedule would disable
tracing again and the count would be decremented to 1.
But if multiple CPUS called schedule at the same time, it is possible
that the count would be decremented more than once because of the
simple "count--" used.
By reading the count into a local variable and using memory barriers
we can guarantee that the count would only be decremented once per
disable (or enable).
The stack trace probe had a similar race, but here the stack trace will
decrement for each time it is called. But this had the read-modify-
write race, where it could stack trace more than the number of times
that was specified. This case we use a cmpxchg to stack trace only the
number of times specified.
The dump probes can still use the old "update_count()" function as
they only run once, and that is controlled by the dump logic
itself.

But when the latency-format is enable, it is not printing the
