From da9c3413a27be5ba6f996e90495c836dd30b8841 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2014 13:53:50 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Fix check of ftrace_trace_arrays list_empty() check The check that tests if ftrace_trace_arrays is empty in top_trace_array(), uses the .prev pointer: if (list_empty(ftrace_trace_arrays.prev)) instead of testing the variable itself: if (list_empty(&ftrace_trace_arrays)) Although it is technically correct, it is awkward and confusing. Use the proper method.
