Subject: [PATCH 5.16 0796/1039] tracing: Do not let synth_events block other dyn_event systems during create
From: Beau Belgrave <beaub@...ux.microsoft.com>
[ Upstream commit 4f67cca70c0f615e9cfe6ac42244f3416ec60877 ]
synth_events is returning -EINVAL if the dyn_event create command does
not contain ' \t'. This prevents other systems from getting called back.
synth_events needs to return -ECANCELED in these cases when the command
is not targeting the synth_event system.

Fixes: c9e759b1e8456 ("tracing: Rework synthetic event command parsing")
