==================================================================

It has been reported that trace_seq_to_buffer() attempts to copy more than
PAGE_SIZE data into buf, so we need to add code to check the size of the 
cnt value to prevent this.

You fixed the wrong location. The caller should know how much size the
buffer is, and that's passed in by cnt.

The correct fix would be:

diff --git a/kernel/trace/trace.c b/kernel/trace/trace.c
index b6e40e8791fa..c23b5ab27314 100644
--- a/kernel/trace/trace.c
+++ b/kernel/trace/trace.c
@@ -6729,7 +6864,8 @@ static ssize_t tracing_splice_read_pipe(struct file *filp,
 		/* Copy the data into the page, so we can start over. */
 		ret = trace_seq_to_buffer(&iter->seq,
 					  page_address(spd.pages[i]),
-					  trace_seq_used(&iter->seq));
+					  min(trace_seq_used(&iter->seq),
+					      PAGE_SIZE));
 		if (ret < 0) {
 			__free_page(spd.pages[i]);
 			break;

Especially since the trace_seq_to_buffer() code should be moved out of this
file and should have no idea how big the buffer passed in is.

Thanks for your advice! I'll fix it right away and send you a v2 patch.
