Linus Torvalds 8f9736633f tracing fixes for v6.17
- Fix buffer overflow in osnoise_cpu_write()
 
   The allocated buffer to read user space did not add a nul terminating byte
   after copying from user the string. It then reads the string, and if user
   space did not add a nul byte, the read will continue beyond the string.
   Add a nul terminating byte after reading the string.
 
 - Fix missing check for lockdown on tracing
 
   There's a path from kprobe events or uprobe events that can update the
   tracing system even if lockdown on tracing is activate. Add a check in the
   dynamic event path.
 
 - Add a recursion check for the function graph return path
 
   Now that fprobes can hook to the function graph tracer and call different
   code between the entry and the exit, the exit code may now call functions
   that are not called in entry. This means that the exit handler can possibly
   trigger recursion that is not caught and cause the system to crash.
   Add the same recursion checks in the function exit handler as exists in the
   entry handler path.
