[BUG] WARNING: at kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c:3420

From: Li Zefan

While running a ftrace test, a kernel warning showed up. The bug is not so
easy to reproduce, normally it takes 30 mins to 2 hours.

After revering 3c05d7482777f15e71bb4cb1ba78dee2800dfec6, I ran the test
for 15 hours, and the bug seems disapeared.
