Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
 "The previous fix to trace_marker required updating trace_marker_raw as
  well. The difference between trace_marker_raw from trace_marker is
  that the raw version is for applications to write binary structures
  directly into the ring buffer instead of writing ASCII strings. This
  is for applications that will read the raw data from the ring buffer
  and get the data structures directly. It's a bit quicker than using
  the ASCII version.

  Unfortunately, it appears that our test suite has several tests that
  test writes to the trace_marker file, but lacks any tests to the
  trace_marker_raw file (this needs to be remedied). Two issues came
  about the update to the trace_marker_raw file that syzbot found:

   - Fix tracing_mark_raw_write() to use per CPU buffer

     The fix to use the per CPU buffer to copy from user space was
     needed for both the trace_maker and trace_maker_raw file.

     The fix for reading from user space into per CPU buffers properly
     fixed the trace_marker write function, but the trace_marker_raw
     file wasn't fixed properly. The user space data was correctly
     written into the per CPU buffer, but the code that wrote into the
     ring buffer still used the user space pointer and not the per CPU
     buffer that had the user space data already written.

   - Stop the fortify string warning from writing into trace_marker_raw

     After converting the copy_from_user_nofault() into a memcpy(),
     another issue appeared. As writes to the trace_marker_raw expects
     binary data, the first entry is a 4 byte identifier. The entry
     structure is defined as:

     struct {
   	struct trace_entry ent;
   	int id;
   	char buf[];
     };

     The size of this structure is reserved on the ring buffer with:

       size = sizeof(*entry) + cnt;

     Then it is copied from the buffer into the ring buffer with:

       memcpy(&entry->id, buf, cnt);

     This use to be a copy_from_user_nofault(), but now converting it to
     a memcpy() triggers the fortify-string code, and causes a warning.

     The allocated space is actually more than what is copied, as the
     cnt used also includes the entry->id portion. Allocating
     sizeof(*entry) plus cnt is actually allocating 4 bytes more than
     what is needed.

     Change the size function to:

       size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));

     And update the memcpy() to unsafe_memcpy()"
