Subject: [for-linus][PATCH 1/3] tracepoint: static call: Compare data on transition from 2->1 callees

From: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@...icios.com>

On transition from 2->1 callees, we should be comparing .data rather
than .func, because the same callback can be registered twice with
different data, and what we care about here is that the data of array
element 0 is unchanged to skip rcu sync.
