It should have been:

		return process_redirects(arg, val, buf);  

But I think you need to consider data type of the arg when
dereferencing the last redirect.

What for?

Otherwise it'd return a value of unsigned long type regardless of the
type of the arg.  I thought it should have same logic as indirect
args.

But it seems not matter since record_entry() would copy it only for
the arg->size.  Then type check in __get_arg() might be unnecessary
too.

Also this code has also changed. I haven't posted new patches but my
latest is in my git tree in the branch ftrace/dynamic-ftrace-events.

I've checked it.  And it seems to have another problem for indirect
(but not redirect) arrays and strings.  Like 'x32[1] foo[2]'?

Thanks,
Namhyung
