Arnd reported the following compiler warning:
arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.c:669:23: error: 'ftrace_jmp_replace' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
The ftrace_jmp_replace() function now only has a single user and should be
simply moved by that user. But looking at the code, it shows that
ftrace_jmp_replace() is similar to ftrace_call_replace() except that instead
of using the opcode of 0xe8 it uses 0xe9. It makes more sense to consolidate
that function into one implementation that both ftrace_jmp_replace() and
ftrace_call_replace() use by passing in the op code separate.
The structure in ftrace_code_union is also modified to replace the "e8"
field with the more appropriate name "op".

The first version of this method was missing the check for
`ret == PATH_MAX`; then such a check was added, but it didn't call kfree()
on error, so there was still a small memory leak in the error case.
Fix it by using strndup_user() instead of open-coding it.

uprobe_profile has filename and number of probe hits information for
each uprobe event. The documentation erroneously talks about probe
mis-hits. Update the documentation to the correct information.

Before setting tr->cond_snapshot, it must be NULL before it can be updated.
It can go to NULL when a trace event hist trigger is created or removed, and
can only be modified under the max_lock spin lock. But because it can only
be set to something other than NULL under both the max_lock spin lock as
well as the trace_types_lock, we can perform the check if it is not NULL
only under the trace_types_lock and fail out without having to grab the
max_lock spin lock.
This is very subtle, and deserves a comment.
