Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
 "This includes three fixes.  Two fix features added in 3.9 and one
  fixes a long time minor bug.

  The first patch fixes a race that can happen if the user switches from
  the irqsoff tracer to another tracer.  If a irqs off latency is
  detected, it will try to use the snapshot buffer, but the new tracer
  wont have it allocated.  There's a nasty warning that gets printed and
  the trace is ignored.  Nothing crashes, just a nasty WARN_ON is shown.

  The second patch fixes an issue where if the sysctl is used to disable
  and enable function tracing, it can put the function tracing into an
  unstable state.

  The third patch fixes an issue with perf using the function tracer.
  An update was done, where the stub function could be called during the
  perf function tracing, and that stub function wont have the "control"
  flag set and cause a nasty warning when running perf."
