Subject: [RFC v5] Kernel access to Ftrace instances. 

Hi,

Please review the patches that follow -

[PATCH 1/2] tracing: Adding new functions for kernel access to Ftrace instances
[PATCH 2/2] tracing: Sample module to demonstrate kernel access to ftrace instances.

This patchset addresses the possibility of deadlock introduced by v4, 
pointed out by Steven Rostedt. 

Tested with lockdep enabled to ensure the issue has been resolved.

Let me know if you have any questions or feedback.

Thanks,
Divya
