Currently if the ftrace_allocate_ftrace_ops() return -ENOMEM,
the ftrace_free_ftrace_ops() will kfree(NULL).
trace_array_create()
{
...
if (ftrace_allocate_ftrace_ops(tr) < 0)
goto out_free_tr;
...
out_free_tr:
ftrace_free_ftrace_ops(tr);
...
}
ftrace_allocate_ftrace_ops()
{
...
ops = kzalloc(sizeof(*ops), GFP_KERNEL);
if (!ops)
return -ENOMEM;
...
}
ftrace_free_ftrace_ops()
{
kfree(tr->ops);
tr->ops = NULL;
}

I am so sorry to bother you, this may be an invalid patch, kfree can
return directly from null. ;-)
