[patch 06/26] ftrace: check for failure for all conversions

[Greg KH]

2.6.31-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 3279ba37db5d65c4ab0dcdee3b211ccb85bb563f upstream.

Due to legacy code from back when the dynamic tracer used a daemon,
only core kernel code was checking for failures. This is no longer
the case. We must check for failures any time we perform text modifications.
