Fixes and minor clean ups for tracing:
- Fix memory leak by reverting what was thought to be a double free.
A static tool had gave a false positive that a double free was
possible in the error path, but it was actually a different location
that confused the static analyzer (and those of us that reviewed it).
- Move use of static buffers by ftrace_dump() to a location that can
be used by kgdb's ftdump(), as it needs it for the same reasons.
- Clarify in the Kconfig description that function tracing has negligible
impact on x86, but may have a bit bigger impact on other architectures.
- Remove unnecessary extra semicolon in trace event.
- Make a local variable static that is used in the fprobes sample
- Use KSYM_NAME_LEN for length of function in kprobe sample and get
rid of unneeded macro for the same purpose.
samples: Use KSYM_NAME_LEN for kprobes
It is better and enough to use KSYM_NAME_LEN for kprobes
in samples, no need to define and use the other values.
