A small fix Pavel sent me back in august was accidentally lost due to it
being placed with some other patches that failed some tests, and was rebased
out of my local tree. Which was a regression that caused event filters
not to handle negative numbers.
The clean up is from Masami that realized that the code in kprobes that
calls probe_mem_read() wrapper, which is to be used in code used by both
kprobes and uprobes, was only in code for kprobes. It should not use the
wrapper there, but instead call probe_kernel_read() directly.

Pull tracing fix/cleanup from Steven Rostedt:
"This is a "pre-pull". It's only one small fix and one small clean up.
I'm testing a few small patches for my real pull request which will
come at a later time. The second patch depends on your tree anyway so
I included it along with the urgent fix.
