Each probe has an instance of process_fetch_insn respectively,
but they have something in common.

This patch aims to extract the common part into
process_common_fetch_insn which can be shared by each probe,
and they only need to focus on their special cases.

<title>kernel/trace: Provide default impelentations defined in trace_probe_tmpl.h</title>

There are 6 function definitions in trace_probe_tmpl.h, they are:

1, fetch_store_strlen
2, fetch_store_string
3, fetch_store_strlen_user
4, fetch_store_string_user
5, probe_mem_read
6, probe_mem_read_user

Every C file which includes trace_probe_tmpl.h has to implement them,
otherwise it gets warnings and errors. However, some of them are identical,
like kprobe and eprobe, as a result, there is a lot redundant code in those
2 files.

This patch would like to provide default behaviors for those functions
which kprobe and eprobe can share by just including trace_probe_kernel.h
with trace_probe_tmpl.h together.

It removes redundant code, increases readability, and more importantly,
makes it easier to introduce a new feature based on trace probe
(it's possible).

print_probe_args is currently inplemented in trace_probe_tmpl.h and
included by *probes, as a result, each probe has an identical copy.

This patch will move it to trace_probe.c as an new API, each probe
calls it to print their args in trace file.

<title>tracing: Fix race where eprobes can be called before the event</title>

The flag that tells the event to call its triggers after reading the event
is set for eprobes after the eprobe is enabled. This leads to a race where
the eprobe may be triggered at the beginning of the event where the record
information is NULL. The eprobe then dereferences the NULL record causing
a NULL kernel pointer bug.

Test for a NULL record to keep this from happening.

Since the eprobe filter was defined based on the eprobe's trace event
itself, it doesn't work correctly. Use the original trace event of
the eprobe when making the filter so that the filter works correctly.

The filter pointer (filterp) passed to create_filter() function must be a
pointer that references a NULL pointer, otherwise, we get a warning when
adding a filter option to the event probe:

The filter pointer (filterp) passed to create_filter() function must be a

The filter string doesn't get freed when a dynamic event is deleted. If a
filter is set, then memory is leaked:

        sched/sched_stat_runtime runtime=$runtime:u32 if cpu &lt; 4' &gt;&gt; dynamic_events

Additionally, in __trace_eprobe_create() function, if an error occurs after
the call to trace_eprobe_parse_filter(), which allocates the filter string,
then memory is also leaked. That can be reproduced by creating the same
event probe twice:

The functions:

  fetch_store_string()

are identical in both trace_kprobe.c and trace_eprobe.c. Move them into
a new header file trace_probe_kernel.h to share it. This code will later
be used by the synthetic events as well.

Marked for stable as a fix for a crash in synthetic events requires it.
