commit 7bcfaf54f5 

"tracing: Add trace_options kernel command line parameter"
 
 in consolidating the code, it removed a necessary nul terminator.
 This causes writing to the trace_options file to break. Although,
 setting the options/<options> file to 1 or 0 still worked fine.

Merge tag 'trace-3.8-rc2-regression-fix' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace

Pull tracing regression fix from Steven Rostedt:
 "A change that came in this merge window broke the writing to the
  trace_options file.  It causes garbage to be read during the compare
  of option names, and breaks setting options via the trace_options
  file, although options can still be set via the options/<option>
  files."
