[PATCH 14/21] tracing: Add preempt disable for filter self test

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Thu Sep 22 2011 - 18:13:50 EST


From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@xxxxxxxxxx>

The self testing for event filters does not really need preemption
disabled as there are no races at the time of testing, but the functions
it calls uses rcu_dereference_sched() which will complain if preemption
is not disabled.
