Linus Torvalds b8c0aa46b3 This pull request has a lot of work done. The main thing is the changes
to the ftrace function callback infrastructure. It's introducing a
 way to allow different functions to call directly different trampolines
 instead of all calling the same "mcount" one.
 
 The only user of this for now is the function graph tracer, which always
 had a different trampoline, but the function tracer trampoline was called
 and did basically nothing, and then the function graph tracer trampoline
 was called. The difference now, is that the function graph tracer
 trampoline can be called directly if a function is only being traced by
 the function graph trampoline. If function tracing is also happening on
 the same function, the old way is still done.
 
 The accounting for this takes up more memory when function graph tracing
 is activated, as it needs to keep track of which functions it uses.
 I have a new way that wont take as much memory, but it's not ready yet
 for this merge window, and will have to wait for the next one.
 
 Another big change was the removal of the ftrace_start/stop() calls that
 were used by the suspend/resume code that stopped function tracing when
 entering into suspend and resume paths. The stop of ftrace was done
 because there was some function that would crash the system if one called
 smp_processor_id()! The stop/start was a big hammer to solve the issue
 at the time, which was when ftrace was first introduced into Linux.
 Now ftrace has better infrastructure to debug such issues, and I found
 the problem function and labeled it with "notrace" and function tracing
 can now safely be activated all the way down into the guts of suspend
 and resume.
 
 Other changes include clean ups of uprobe code.
 Clean up of the trace_seq() code.
 And other various small fixes and clean ups to ftrace and tracing.
