I was concerned about this too, but it looks like it's allocated and later
freed in every location except for a couple of instances.

One is "tracepoint_print_iter" which is used to pipe tracepoints to printk.
I think we can possibly make that allocated too.

The other is in ftrace_dump, which I don't think we can easily allocate
that. Although, we could have it allocated at boot up if
ftrace_dump_on_oops() is enabled.

Another KTODO?
