commit 851e6f61cd076954f9d521e0d79b173ad3a2453b upstream.
The temp buffer size variable for trace_find_next_entry() was incorrectly being updated when the size did not change. The temp buffer size should only be updated when it is reallocated.
This is mostly an issue when used with ftrace_dump(). That's because ftrace_dump() can not allocate a new buffer, and instead uses a temporary buffer with a fix size. But the variable that keeps track of that size is incorrectly updated with each call, and it could fall into the path that would try to reallocate the buffer and produce a warning.

Not only fix the updating of the temp buffer, but also do not free the temp buffer before a new buffer is allocated (there's no reason to not continue to use the current temp buffer if an allocation fails).
