+Subject: Fix tracing sample code warning.
+
+From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
+
+commit a0cb2b5c390151837b08e5f7bca4a6ecddbcd39c upstream.
+
+Commit 6575257c60e1 ("tracing/samples: Fix creation and deletion of
+simple_thread_fn creation") introduced a new warning due to using a
+boolean as a counter.
+
+Just make it "int".
+
+Fixes: 6575257c60e1 ("tracing/samples: Fix creation and deletion of simple_thread_fn creation")

+Subject: tracing/samples: Fix creation and deletion of simple_thread_fn creation
+
+From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
+
+commit 6575257c60e1a26a5319ccf2b5ce5b6449001017 upstream.
+
+Commit 7496946a8 ("tracing: Add samples of DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and
+DEFINE_EVENT()") added template examples for all the events. It created a
+DEFINE_EVENT_FN() example which reused the foo_bar_reg and foo_bar_unreg
+functions.
+
+Enabling both the TRACE_EVENT_FN() and DEFINE_EVENT_FN() example trace
+events caused the foo_bar_reg to be called twice, creating the test thread
+twice. The foo_bar_unreg would remove it only once, even if it was called
+multiple times, leaving a thread existing when the module is unloaded,
+causing an oops.
+
+Add a ref count and allow foo_bar_reg() and foo_bar_unreg() be called by
+multiple trace events.
+
+Fixes: 7496946a8 ("tracing: Add samples of DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and DEFINE_EVENT()")
