tracing: Fix crash when freeing instances with event triggers
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776177 commit 86b389ff upstream. If a instance has an event trigger enabled when it is freed, it could cause an access of free memory. Here's the case that crashes: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # mkdir instances/foo # echo snapshot > instances/foo/events/initcall/initcall_start/trigger # rmdir instances/foo Would produce: general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI Modules linked in: tun bridge ...
