Merge tag 'ftrace-urgent-3.12-v2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull perf/ftrace fix from Steven Rostedt: "Dave Jones's trinity program was able to enable the function tracer from a normal user account via the perf syscall "perf_event_open()". When I was able to reproduce it with trinity, I was able to track down exactly how it happened. I discovered that the check for whether the function tracepoint should be activated or not was using the "perf_paranoid_kernel()" check which by default, lets the user continue. The user should not by default be able to enable function tracing. The fix is to use "perf_paranoid_tracepoint_raw()" which will not let the user enable function tracing. This is a security fix as normal users should never be allowed to enable the function tracer" * tag 'ftrace-urgent-3.12-v2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: perf/ftrace: Fix paranoid level for enabling function tracer
