Subject: [PATCH v2 4/7] tracing: Change tracing_stats_fops to rely on
	tracing_get_cpu()

tracing_open_generic_tc() is racy, the memory inode->i_private
points to can be already freed.

1. Change one of its users, tracing_stats_fops, to use
   tracing_*_generic_tr() instead.

2. Change trace_create_cpu_file("stats", data) to pass "data = tr".

3. Change tracing_stats_read() to use tracing_get_cpu().
