Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:

 - Fix error output of boot instance creation failure

   Currently if a boot instance creation fails, instead of printing out
   the name of the instance that failed, it prints "(null)". That is
   because it prints "cur_str" that had already been processed by
   strsep(). Print the saved name instead.

   While at it, print the error code of the failure.

 - Fix use-after-free for same named historgrams

   Histograms can be named so that they can be used in multiple events.
   But if the named histogram has a variable attached, the second event
   that uses the named histogram which duplicates it and needs to free
   the original after duplication leaves the old variable in place and
   still visible. If another histogram uses than variable, it will use
   the stale one which will try to reference the freed duplicate
   histogram and crash the kernel.

   Free the duplicate variables along with the duplicated histogram
   data.

 - Check return value of kthread_run() in event self test

   The events self tests uses a kthread for testing but does not check
   if it succeeded in creating a kthread. If the kthread creation were
   to fail, the code will still try to call kthread_stop() on the error
   returned.

 - Fix race between reading trace_pipe and updating subbuffer size

   If a user is reading the trace_pipe file at the same time they update
   the ring buffer sub-buffer size, can cause the trace_pipe read to
   read stale data. Add trace_access_lock() around updating the ring
   buffer sub-buffer size.

 - Fix eventfs_inode on failure path in creation of the events directory

   In the creation of the "events" directory, if after allocating the
   eventfs_inode a failure is detected, it calls cleanup_ei() which
   calls free_ei(). The free_ei() will test if eventfs_inode being freed
   has no children. It is a bug if it does. But on the failure case of
   the creation of the "events" directory, the children lists have not
   yet been initialized and the free will trigger a warning because
   list_empty() on an uninitialized list returns false.

   Move the initialization into init_ei() where it makes more sense and
   makes sure that a created eventfs_inode has its lists initialized
   upon creation.

 - Check return value of kthread_run() in ftrace direct sample code

   The sample code that shows how to use the ftrace direct calls does
   not test the return of kthread_run() to see if it succeeds. Return a
   failure if the kthread_run() doesn't succeed.

 - Clear user events state on fork in case of alloc failure

   On fork, the child gets a pointer to the parent's user events state.
   It makes a copy of it then updates the child's pointer to it. But if
   the allocation fails, the duplication function leaves the child with
   a pointer to its parent's descriptor. When the child cleans up its
   data, it will free the parent's descriptor while the parent is still
   using it.

   In the duplication function, set the child's user_event_mm to NULL
   before testing if the allocation succeeded, and when it exits it will
   not free the parent's descriptor.

 - Fix retry exhaustion in simple ring buffer reader swap

   simple_ring_buffer_swap_reader_page() starts with retry set to 8 and
   post-decrements it only after a failed link replacement. On the final
   attempt, a successful replacement leaves retry at zero, while a
   failed replacement leaves it at -1.

   But the check for success expects the retry value to be non-zero and
   exits with an error on zero. This is the opposite result. Fix it.

 - Fail nicely when the remote swap_reader_page() returns an error

   Currently, if the swap_reader_page() of a remote buffer fails, it
   triggers a WARN_ON_ONCE() and continues normally. Instead, have it
   exit with an error and a pr_warn() print instead of a full WARNING.

+dm-crypt
+========
+
+Device-Mapper's "crypt" target provides transparent encryption of block devices
+using the kernel crypto API.
+
+For a more detailed description of supported parameters see:
+https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/wikis/DMCrypt
+
+Parameters::
+
+	      <cipher> <key> <iv_offset> <device path> \
+	      <offset> [<#opt_params> <opt_params>]
+
+<cipher>
+    Encryption cipher, encryption mode and Initial Vector (IV) generator.
+
+    The cipher specifications format is::
+
+       cipher[:keycount]-chainmode-ivmode[:ivopts]
+
+    Examples::
+
+       aes-cbc-essiv:sha256
+       aes-xts-plain64
+       serpent-xts-plain64
+
+    Cipher format also supports direct specification with kernel crypt API
+    format (selected by capi: prefix). The IV specification is the same
+    as for the first format type.
+    This format is mainly used for specification of authenticated modes.
+
+    The crypto API cipher specifications format is::
+
+        capi:cipher_api_spec-ivmode[:ivopts]
+
+    Examples::
+
+        capi:cbc(aes)-essiv:sha256
+        capi:xts(aes)-plain64
+
+    Examples of authenticated modes::
+
+        capi:gcm(aes)-random
+        capi:authenc(hmac(sha256),xts(aes))-random
+        capi:rfc7539(chacha20,poly1305)-random
+
+    The /proc/crypto contains a list of currently loaded crypto modes.
+
+<key>
+    Key used for encryption. It is encoded either as a hexadecimal number
+    or it can be passed as <key_string> prefixed with single colon
+    character (':') for keys residing in kernel keyring service.
+    You can only use key sizes that are valid for the selected cipher
+    in combination with the selected iv mode.
+    Note that for some iv modes the key string can contain additional
+    keys (for example IV seed) so the key contains more parts concatenated
+    into a single string.
+
+<key_string>
+    The kernel keyring key is identified by string in following format:
+    <key_size>:<key_type>:<key_description>.
+
+<key_size>
+    The encryption key size in bytes. The kernel key payload size must match
+    the value passed in <key_size>.
+
+<key_type>
+    Either 'logon', 'user', 'encrypted' or 'trusted' kernel key type.
+
+<key_description>
+    The kernel keyring key description crypt target should look for
+    when loading key of <key_type>.
+
+<keycount>
+    Multi-key compatibility mode. You can define <keycount> keys and
+    then sectors are encrypted according to their offsets (sector 0 uses key0;
+    sector 1 uses key1 etc.).  <keycount> must be a power of two.
+
+<iv_offset>
+    The IV offset is a sector count that is added to the sector number
+    before creating the IV.
+
+<device path>
+    This is the device that is going to be used as backend and contains the
+    encrypted data.  You can specify it as a path like /dev/xxx or a device
+    number <major>:<minor>.
+
+<offset>
+    Starting sector within the device where the encrypted data begins.
+
+<#opt_params>
+    Number of optional parameters. If there are no optional parameters,
+    the optional parameters section can be skipped or #opt_params can be zero.
+    Otherwise #opt_params is the number of following arguments.
+
+    Example of optional parameters section:
+        3 allow_discards same_cpu_crypt submit_from_crypt_cpus
+
+allow_discards
+    Block discard requests (a.k.a. TRIM) are passed through the crypt device.
+    The default is to ignore discard requests.
+
+    WARNING: Assess the specific security risks carefully before enabling this
+    option.  For example, allowing discards on encrypted devices may lead to
+    the leak of information about the ciphertext device (filesystem type,
+    used space etc.) if the discarded blocks can be located easily on the
+    device later.
+
+same_cpu_crypt
+    Perform encryption using the same cpu that IO was submitted on.
+    The default is to use an unbound workqueue so that encryption work
+    is automatically balanced between available CPUs.
+
+high_priority
+    Set dm-crypt workqueues and the writer thread to high priority. This
+    improves throughput and latency of dm-crypt while degrading general
+    responsiveness of the system.
+
+submit_from_crypt_cpus
+    Disable offloading writes to a separate thread after encryption.
+    There are some situations where offloading write bios from the
+    encryption threads to a single thread degrades performance
+    significantly.  The default is to offload write bios to the same
+    thread because it benefits CFQ to have writes submitted using the
+    same context.
+
+no_read_workqueue
+    Bypass dm-crypt internal workqueue and process read requests synchronously.
+
+no_write_workqueue
+    Bypass dm-crypt internal workqueue and process write requests synchronously.
+    This option is automatically enabled for host-managed zoned block devices
+    (e.g. host-managed SMR hard-disks).
+
+integrity:<bytes>:<type>
+    The device requires additional <bytes> metadata per-sector stored
+    in per-bio integrity structure. This metadata must by provided
+    by underlying dm-integrity target.
+
+    The <type> can be "none" if metadata is used only for persistent IV.
+
+    For Authenticated Encryption with Additional Data (AEAD)
+    the <type> is "aead". An AEAD mode additionally calculates and verifies
+    integrity for the encrypted device. The additional space is then
+    used for storing authentication tag (and persistent IV if needed).
+
+integrity_key_size:<bytes>
+    Optionally set the integrity key size if it differs from the digest size.
+    It allows the use of wrapped key algorithms where the key size is
+    independent of the cryptographic key size.
+
+sector_size:<bytes>
+    Use <bytes> as the encryption unit instead of 512 bytes sectors.
+    This option can be in range 512 - 4096 bytes and must be power of two.
+    Virtual device will announce this size as a minimal IO and logical sector.
+
+iv_large_sectors
+   IV generators will use sector number counted in <sector_size> units
+   instead of default 512 bytes sectors.
+
+   For example, if <sector_size> is 4096 bytes, plain64 IV for the second
+   sector will be 8 (without flag) and 1 if iv_large_sectors is present.
+   The <iv_offset> must be multiple of <sector_size> (in 512 bytes units)
+   if this flag is specified.
+
+integrity_key_size:<bytes>
+   Use an integrity key of <bytes> size instead of using an integrity key size
+   of the digest size of the used HMAC algorithm.
+
+
+Module parameters::
+   max_read_size
+      Maximum size of read requests. When a request larger than this size
+      is received, dm-crypt will split the request. The splitting improves
+      concurrency (the split requests could be encrypted in parallel by multiple
+      cores), but it also causes overhead. The user should tune this parameters to
+      fit the actual workload.
+
+   max_write_size
+      Maximum size of write requests. When a request larger than this size
+      is received, dm-crypt will split the request. The splitting improves
+      concurrency (the split requests could be encrypted in parallel by multiple
+      cores), but it also causes overhead. The user should tune this parameters to
+      fit the actual workload.
