Color me confused...

Unless someone has a better idea, I will send in a patch that adds
"notrace" to every RCU API member used by any file in the kernel
that has "trace" in its name (excluding ptrace.c and rcutree_trace.c,
of course).  This list is as follows:

	call_rcu()
	call_rcu_sched()
	rcu_read_lock()
	rcu_read_unlock()

So, any better ideas?
