Pull twi tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
 "Two urgent fixes in the tracing utility.

  The first is a fix for the way the ring buffer stores timestamps.
  After a restructure of the code was done, the ring buffer timestamp
  logic missed the fact that the first event on a sub buffer is to have
  a zero delta, as the full timestamp is stored on the sub buffer
  itself.  But because the delta was not cleared to zero, the timestamp
  for that event will be calculated as the real timestamp + the delta
  from the last timestamp.  This can skew the timestamps of the events
  and have them say they happened when they didn't really happen.
  That's bad.

  The second fix is for modifying the function graph caller site.  When
  the stop machine was removed from updating the function tracing code,
  it missed updating the function graph call site location.  It is still
  modified as if it is being done via stop machine.  But it's not.  This
  can lead to a GPF and kernel crash if the function graph call site
  happens to lie between cache lines and one CPU is executing it while
  another CPU is doing the update.  It would be a very hard condition to
  hit, but the result is severe enough to have it fixed ASAP"
