[PATCH] mmap: Remove unused events vma_mas_szero and vma_store

[PATCH] mmap: Remove unused events vma_mas_szero and vma_store

[Steven Rostedt]

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

When the __vma_adjust() was converted to use the vma iterator it removed
the functions vma_mas_store() and vma_mas_remove(). These functions called
the tracepoints trace_vma_mas_store() and trace_vma_mas_szero()
respectively. The calls to these tracepoints were removed but the trace
events that created the tracepoints were not removed. Each trace event can
take up to 5K of memory, and it is allocated regardless of if they are
called or not.

Remove the unused trace events.

Thanks.  mm.git has an identical patch from Caleb Mateos

Bah, that's why I didn't send it out. I just noticed it in my queue. I
forgot to delete it.

I even replied that I was going to send this and found out that it's the
patch that started everything.

Feel free to ignore. Sorry for the noise ;-)
