Merge tag 'trace-fixes-v3.15-rc4-v2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"This contains two fixes.
The first is a long standing bug that causes bogus data to show up in
the refcnt field of the module_refcnt tracepoint. It was introduced
by a merge conflict resolution back in 2.6.35-rc days.
The result should be 'refcnt = incs - decs', but instead it did
'refcnt = incs + decs'.
The second fix is to a bug that was introduced in this merge window
that allowed for a tracepoint funcs pointer to be used after it was
freed. Moving the location of where the probes are released solved
the problem"
