ftrace: Reset fgd->hash in ftrace_graph_write()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
fgd->hash is saved and then freed, but is never reset to either
ftrace_graph_hash nor ftrace_graph_notrace_hash. But if multiple writes are
performed, then the freed hash could be accessed again.

 # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
 # head -1000 available_filter_functions > /tmp/funcs
 # cat /tmp/funcs > set_graph_function
