Subject[PATCH 5.10 446/545] ftrace/x86: Add back ftrace_expected assignment
Date
From: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

commit ac6c1b2ca77e722a1e5d651f12f437f2f237e658 upstream.

When a ftrace_bug happens (where ftrace fails to modify a location) it is
helpful to have what was at that location as well as what was expected to
be there.

But with the conversion to text_poke() the variable that assigns the
expected for debugging was dropped. Unfortunately, I noticed this when I
needed it. Add it back.
