Steven Rostedt (VMware) 10f20e9f9d tracing: Have zero size length in filter logic be full string
As strings in trace events may not have a nul terminating character, the
filter string compares use the defined string length for the field for the
compares.

The trace_marker records data slightly different than do normal events. It's
size is zero, meaning that the string is the rest of the array, and that the
string also ends with '\0'.

If the size is zero, assume that the string is nul terminated and read the
string in question as is.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
