Linus Torvalds ad87a8d0c4 Fix ref count of trace_array in error path of histogram file open
Tracing instances have a ref count to keep them around while files within
 their directories are open. This prevents them from being deleted while
 they are used. The histogram code had some files that needed to take the
 ref count and that was added, but the error paths did not decrement the
 ref counts. This caused the instances from ever being removed if a
 histogram file failed to open due to some error.

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 reStructuredText 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.
