[PATCH 0/2] git pull request for tip/tracing/urgent

Ingo,

Here's the changes by Lai. The bug scared me enough to investigate
it further, to see if we had other bug reports that this could
have fixed. But I found out that ring_buffer_read_page currently
does not have any users. The only user I have is for my splice work,
which has not been included yet.

I guess Lai is adding one. These are true bug fixes to code that
is in the kernel, even if that code is currently "dead code". But I think
they should still be included in 29, since this will reflect on ftrace
when we have developers starting to use it (such as Lai).

The following patches are in:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-2.6-trace.git

branch: tip/tracing/urgent/devel


Lai Jiangshan (2):
ring_buffer: fix typing mistake
ring_buffer: fix ring_buffer_read_page()
