When ETR is enabled as CS_MODE_SYSFS, if the buffer size is changed
and enabled again, currently sysfs_buf will point to the newly
allocated memory(buf_new) and free the old memory(buf_old). But the
etr_buf that is being used by the ETR remains pointed to buf_old, not
updated to buf_new. In this case, it will result in a memory
use-after-free issue.
Fix this by checking ETR's mode before updating and releasing buf_old,
if the mode is CS_MODE_SYSFS, then skip updating and releasing it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
