Merge tag 'trace-fixes-v3.18-rc1-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
 "ARM has system calls outside the NR_syscalls range, and the generic
  tracing system does not support that and without checks, it can cause
  an oops to be reported.

  Rabin Vincent added checks in the return code on syscall events to
  make sure that the system call number is within the range that tracing
  knows about, and if not, simply ignores the system call.

  The system call tracing infrastructure needs to be rewritten to handle
  these cases better, but for now, to keep from oopsing, this patch will
  do"
