[PATCH][GIT PULL] tracing/lockdep: Fix dependency of TRACE_IRQFLAGS

Ingo,

This only fixes a build warning, so I'm guessing that it can wait till
2.6.37. If you think otherwise, I could add it to my tip/perf/urgent
branch instead.

Please pull the latest tip/perf/core tree, which can be found at:

tracing/lockdep: Fix dependency of TRACE_IRQFLAGS

When CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER is set and CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is not, we
get the following error:

$ make oldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig arch/x86/Kconfig
warning: (IRQSOFF_TRACER && TRACING_SUPPORT && FTRACE && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && !ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET) selects TRACE_IRQFLAGS which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && PROVE_LOCKING)
warning: (IRQSOFF_TRACER && TRACING_SUPPORT && FTRACE && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && !ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET) selects TRACE_IRQFLAGS which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && PROVE_LOCKING)

This is because IRQSOFF_TRACER selects TRACE_IRQFLAGS but TRACE_IRQFLAGS
has PROVE_LOCKING as a dependency. This code is incorrect, and
this patch changes the TRACE_IRQFLAGS to be just a simple bool that
does not depend or select anything. Instead both IRQSOFF_TRACER and
PROVE_LOCKING select it.
