Merge tag 'tracefs-v7.1-v2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace

Pull tracefs updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Simplify error handling with guards()

   Use guards() to simplify the handling of releasing locks in exit
   paths.

 - Use dentry name snapshots instead of allocation

   Instead of allocating a temp buffer to store the dentry name to use
   in mkdir() and rmdir() use take_dentry_name_snapshot().

 - Fix default permissions not being applied at boot

   The default permissions for tracefs was 0700 to only allow root
   having access. But after a change to fix other mount options the
   update to permissions ignored the defined default and used the system
   default of 0755. This is a regression and is fixed.
