Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "This release has no new tracing features, just clean ups, minor fixes and small optimizations" * tag 'trace-v4.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (25 commits) tracing: Remove outdated ring buffer comment tracing/probes: Fix a warning message to show correct maximum length tracing: Fix return value check in trace_benchmark_reg() tracing: Use modern function declaration jump_label: Reduce the size of struct static_key tracing/probe: Show subsystem name in messages tracing/hwlat: Update old comment about migration timers: Make flags output in the timer_start tracepoint useful tracing: Have traceprobe_probes_write() not access userspace unnecessarily tracing: Have COMM event filter key be treated as a string ftrace: Have set_graph_function handle multiple functions in one write ftrace: Do not hold references of ftrace_graph_{notrace_}hash out of graph_lock tracing: Reset parser->buffer to allow multiple "puts" ftrace: Have set_graph_functions handle write with RDWR ftrace: Reset fgd->hash in ftrace_graph_write() ftrace: Replace (void *)1 with a meaningful macro name FTRACE_GRAPH_EMPTY ftrace: Create a slight optimization on searching the ftrace_hash tracing: Add ftrace_hash_key() helper function ftrace: Convert graph filter to use hash tables ftrace: Expose ftrace_hash_empty and ftrace_lookup_ip ...
