[GIT PULL] probes: Fixes for v7.0-rc7

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Hi Linus,

Probes fixes for v7.0-rc7

- tracing/probe: reject non-closed empty immediate strings
  Fixed a buffer index underflow bug that occurred when passing an
  non-closed empty immediate string to the probe event.

    tracing/probe: reject non-closed empty immediate strings
    
    parse_probe_arg() accepts quoted immediate strings and passes the body
    after the opening quote to __parse_imm_string(). That helper currently
    computes strlen(str) and immediately dereferences str[len - 1], which
    underflows when the body is empty and not closed with double-quotation.
    
    Reject empty non-closed immediate strings before checking for the closing quote.
