Below race can come, if trace_open and resize of
cpu buffer is running parallely on different cpus
CPUX                                CPUY
				    ring_buffer_resize
				    atomic_read(&buffer->resize_disabled)
tracing_open
tracing_reset_online_cpus
ring_buffer_reset_cpu
rb_reset_cpu
				    rb_update_pages
				    remove/insert pages
resetting pointer
This race can cause data abort or some times infinte loop in
rb_remove_pages and rb_insert_pages while checking pages
for sanity.

Strange, I don't have your original email in my inbox. I do have it in my
LKML folder, but that's way too big for me to read. I checked my server
logs. I found where I received this from LKML, but there's no log that I
received this directly.

How are you sending out your patches? If it doesn't land in my inbox, I'll
never see it.
