Merge tag 'trace-v5.14-5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
 "Fix the histogram logic from possibly crashing the kernel

  Working on the histogram code, I found that if you dereference a char
  pointer in a trace event that happens to point to user space, it can
  crash the kernel, as it does no checks of that pointer. I have code
  coming that will do this better, so just remove this ability to treat
  character pointers in trace events as stings in the histogram"

* tag 'trace-v5.14-5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace:
  tracing: Do not reference char * as a string in histograms
