Steven Rostedt (VMware) 9528c19507 tracing: Clean up alloc_synth_event()
alloc_synth_event() currently has the following code to initialize the
event fields and dynamic_fields:

	for (i = 0, j = 0; i < n_fields; i++) {
		event->fields[i] = fields[i];

		if (fields[i]->is_dynamic) {
			event->dynamic_fields[j] = fields[i];
			event->dynamic_fields[j]->field_pos = i;
			event->dynamic_fields[j++] = fields[i];
			event->n_dynamic_fields++;
		}
	}

1) It would make more sense to have all fields keep track of their
   field_pos.

2) event->dynmaic_fields[j] is assigned twice for no reason.

3) We can move updating event->n_dynamic_fields outside the loop, and just
   assign it to j.

This combination makes the code much cleaner.

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 Restructured Text 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.
