Adding 2 new functions -
1) trace_array_lookup : Look up and return a trace array, given its
name.
2) trace_array_set_clr_event : Enable/disable event recording to the
given trace array.

Accessing the ftrace_trace_arrays requires taking the trace_types_lock.
It should also probably increment the ref counter too, and then
trace_array_put() needs to be called.

This prevents the trace array from being freed while something has
access to it.

Agree - Noted!

Also, adding a similar change for trace_array_create which also returns a ptr to a newly created trace_array so will face the same issue.

Since trace_array_lookup and trace_array_create will be accompanied by a trace_array_destroy once the use of the trace_array is done, decrementing the reference ctr here.

Sending a v2 to address this.


Thanks,

Divya
