Merge tag 'trace-v5.18-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull more tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Rename the staging files to give them some meaning. Just stage1,stag2,etc, does not show what they are for - Check for NULL from allocation in bootconfig - Hold event mutex for dyn_event call in user events - Mark user events to broken (to work on the API) - Remove eBPF updates from user events - Remove user events from uapi header to keep it from being installed. - Move ftrace_graph_is_dead() into inline as it is called from hot paths and also convert it into a static branch. * tag 'trace-v5.18-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: tracing: Move user_events.h temporarily out of include/uapi ftrace: Make ftrace_graph_is_dead() a static branch tracing: Set user_events to BROKEN tracing/user_events: Remove eBPF interfaces tracing/user_events: Hold event_mutex during dyn_event_add proc: bootconfig: Add null pointer check tracing: Rename the staging files for trace_events
