Merge tag 'trace-3.8-rc2-regression-fix' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing regression fix from Steven Rostedt: "A change that came in this merge window broke the writing to the trace_options file. It causes garbage to be read during the compare of option names, and breaks setting options via the trace_options file, although options can still be set via the options/<option> files." * tag 'trace-3.8-rc2-regression-fix' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: tracing: Fix regression of trace_options file setting
