Subject[PATCH v2] tracepoints: prevents null probe from being added
Date
From: Sahara <keun-o.park@windriver.com>

Somehow tracepoint_entry_add_probe function allows a null probe function.
And, this may lead to unexpected result since the number of probe
functions in an entry can be counted by checking whether probe is null
or not in for-loop.
This patch prevents the null probe from being added.
In tracepoint_entry_remove_probe function, checking probe parameter
within for-loop is moved out for code efficiency leaving the null probe
feature which removes all probe functions in the entry.
