4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: zhangyi (F) <[email protected]> commit e7f0c424d0806b05d6f47be9f202b037eb701707 upstream. Commit d716ff71dd12 ("tracing: Remove taking of trace_types_lock in pipe files") use the current tracer instead of the copy in tracing_open_pipe(), but it forget to remove the freeing sentence in the error path. There's an error path that can call kfree(iter->trace) after the iter->trace was assigned to tr->current_trace, which would be bad to free.
