6.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <[email protected]>

commit a9d6fb284039a5d3858a1d9f9a0d7e46cfb7c2d4 upstream.

If trace_probe_log.argc is 0 in __trace_probe_log_err(), the loop
constructing the command string will not execute and p will remain equal to
command. Writing to *(p - 1) will cause an out-of-bounds access before
command. This should not happen, but better to be treated.

Reject if trace_probe_log.argc is 0.
