Steven Rostedt (VMware) 0531e84bc8 tracepoint: Add tracepoint_probe_register_may_exist() for BPF tracing 
commit 9913d5745b upstream.

All internal use cases for tracepoint_probe_register() is set to not ever
be called with the same function and data. If it is, it is considered a
bug, as that means the accounting of handling tracepoints is corrupted.
If the function and data for a tracepoint is already registered when
tracepoint_probe_register() is called, it will call WARN_ON_ONCE() and
return with EEXISTS.

The BPF system call can end up calling tracepoint_probe_register() with
the same data, which now means that this can trigger the warning because
of a user space process. As WARN_ON_ONCE() should not be called because
user space called a system call with bad data, there needs to be a way to
register a tracepoint without triggering a warning.

Enter tracepoint_probe_register_may_exist(), which can be called, but will
not cause a WARN_ON() if the probe already exists. It will still error out
with EEXIST, which will then be sent to the user space that performed the
BPF system call.

This keeps the previous testing for issues with other users of the
tracepoint code, while letting BPF call it with duplicated data and not
warn about it.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
