From: Brian Foster <bfoster(a)redhat.com>
The pipe cpumask used to serialize opens between the main and percpu
trace pipes is not zeroed or initialized. This can result in
spurious -EBUSY returns if underlying memory is not fully zeroed.
This has been observed by immediate failure to read the main
trace_pipe file on an otherwise newly booted and idle system:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe
cat: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe: Device or resource busy
Zero the allocation of pipe_cpumask to avoid the problem.
