Merge tag 'trace-3.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace

Pull tracing changes from Steven Rostedt:
 "The majority of the changes here are cleanups for the large changes
  that were added to 3.10, which includes several bug fixes that have
  been marked for stable.

  As for new features, there were a few, but nothing to write to LWN
  about.  These include:

  New function trigger called "dump" and "cpudump" that will cause
  ftrace to dump its buffer to the console when the function is called.
  The difference between "dump" and "cpudump" is that "dump" will dump
  the entire contents of the ftrace buffer, where as "cpudump" will only
  dump the contents of the ftrace buffer for the CPU that called the
  function.

  Another small enhancement is a new sysctl switch called
  "traceoff_on_warning" which, when enabled, will disable tracing if any
  WARN_ON() is triggered.  This is useful if you want to debug what
  caused a warning and do not want to risk losing your trace data by the
  ring buffer overwriting the data before you can disable it.  There's
  also a kernel command line option that will make this enabled at boot
  up called the same thing"
