Fix for realloc bug and wrong error logging
This patch fixes two bugs in blktrace. 1. realloc is called on a wrong memory address (glibc reports heap corruption if the user sends the output to a pipe, for example "blktrace /dev/sdc -o -"). 2. errno 0 is actually reported if debugfs is not mounted Mikulas Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
