tracing: Do not create directories if lockdown is in affect
If lockdown is disabling tracing on boot up, it prevents the tracing files from even bering created. But when that happens, there's several places that will give a warning that the files were not created as that is usually a sign of a bug. Add in strategic locations where a check is made to see if tracing is disabled by lockdown, and if it is, do not go further, and fail silently (but print that tracing is disabled by lockdown, without doing a WARN_ON()). Cc: Matthew Garrett <mjg59@google.com> Fixes: 17911ff38aa5 ("tracing: Add locked_down checks to the open calls of files created for tracefs") Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
