[for-next][PATCH 4/4] ftrace/rcu: Do not trace debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled()

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Thu Sep 05 2013 - 21:49:46 EST


From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

The function debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled() is part of the RCU lockdep
debugging, and is called very frequently. I found that if I enable
a lot of debugging and run the function graph tracer, this
function can cause a live lock of the system.

We don't usually trace lockdep infrastructure, no need to trace
this either.
