The typical pattern for trace_hardirqs_off_prepare() is:
ENTRY
lockdep_hardirqs_off(); // because hardware
... do entry magic
instrumentation_begin();
trace_hardirqs_off_prepare();
... do actual work
trace_hardirqs_on_prepare();
lockdep_hardirqs_on_prepare();
instrumentation_end();
... do exit magic
lockdep_hardirqs_on();
which shows that it's named wrong, rename it to
trace_hardirqs_off_finish(), as it concludes the hardirq_off transition.
Also, given that the above is the only correct order, make the traditional
all-in-one trace_hardirqs_off() follow suit.

Force inlining and prevent instrumentation of all sorts by marking the
functions which are invoked from low level entry code with 'noinstr'.
Split the irqflags tracking into two parts. One which does the heavy
lifting while RCU is watching and the final one which can be invoked after
RCU is turned off.

trace_hardirqs_on/off() is only partially safe vs. RCU idle. The tracer
core itself is safe, but the resulting tracepoints can be utilized by
e.g. BPF which is unsafe.
Provide variants which do not contain the lockdep invocation so the lockdep
and tracer invocations can be split at the call site and placed
properly. This is required because lockdep needs to be aware of the state
before switching away from RCU idle and after switching to RCU idle because
these transitions can take locks.
As these code pathes are going to be non-instrumentable the tracer can be
invoked after RCU is turned on and before the switch to RCU idle. So for
these new variants there is no need to invoke the rcuidle aware tracer
functions.
Name them so they match the lockdep counterparts.

Joel Fernandes created a nice patch that cleaned up the duplicate hooks used
by lockdep and irqsoff latency tracer. It made both use tracepoints. But the
latency tracer is triggering warnings when using tracepoints to call into
the latency tracer's routines. Mainly, they can be called from NMI context.
If that happens, then the SRCU may not work properly because on some
architectures, SRCU is not safe to be called in both NMI and non-NMI
context.
This is a partial revert of the clean up patch c3bc8fd637 ("tracing:
Centralize preemptirq tracepoints and unify their usage") that adds back the
direct calls into the latency tracer. It also only calls the trace events
when not in NMI.

Joel Fernandes created a nice patch that cleaned up the duplicate hooks used
by lockdep and irqsoff latency tracer. It made both use tracepoints. But it
caused lockdep to trigger several false positives. We have not figured out
why yet, but removing lockdep from using the trace event hooks and just call
its helper functions directly (like it use to), makes the problem go away.
This is a partial revert of the clean up patch c3bc8fd637 ("tracing:
Centralize preemptirq tracepoints and unify their usage") that adds direct
calls for lockdep, but also keeps most of the clean up done to get rid of
the horrible preprocessor if statements.

This patch detaches the preemptirq tracepoints from the tracers and
keeps it separate.
Advantages:
* Lockdep and irqsoff event can now run in parallel since they no longer
have their own calls.
* This unifies the usecase of adding hooks to an irqsoff and irqson
event, and a preemptoff and preempton event.
3 users of the events exist:
- Lockdep
- irqsoff and preemptoff tracers
- irqs and preempt trace events
The unification cleans up several ifdefs and makes the code in preempt
tracer and irqsoff tracers simpler. It gets rid of all the horrific
ifdeferry around PROVE_LOCKING and makes configuration of the different
users of the tracepoints more easy and understandable. It also gets rid
of the time_* function calls from the lockdep hooks used to call into
the preemptirq tracer which is not needed anymore. The negative delta in
lines of code in this patch is quite large too.
In the patch we introduce a new CONFIG option PREEMPTIRQ_TRACEPOINTS
as a single point for registering probes onto the tracepoints. With
this,
the web of config options for preempt/irq toggle tracepoints and its
users becomes:
PREEMPT_TRACER PREEMPTIRQ_EVENTS IRQSOFF_TRACER PROVE_LOCKING

\ (selects) / \ \ (selects) /

Other than the performance tests mentioned in the previous patch, I also
ran the locking API test suite. I verified that all tests cases are
passing.
I also injected issues by not registering lockdep probes onto the
tracepoints and I see failures to confirm that the probes are indeed
working.
This series + lockdep probes not registered (just to inject errors):
