[for-linus][PATCH 2/4] ftrace: Fix NULL memory allocation check
Posted by Steven Rostedt 9 months, 1 week ago
From: Colin Ian King <colin.i.king@gmail.com>

The check for a failed memory location is incorrectly checking
the wrong level of pointer indirection by checking !filter_hash
rather than !*filter_hash.  Fix this.
