[PATCH 2/3] tracing/mm: Don't trace mm_page_free on offline cpus

[Shreyas B. Prabhu]

Since tracepoints use RCU for protection, they must not be called on
offline cpus. trace_mm_page_free can be called on an offline cpu in
this scenario caught by LOCKDEP:

 ===============================
 [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
 4.1.0-rc1+ #9 Not tainted
 -------------------------------
 include/trace/events/kmem.h:170 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

other info that might help us debug this:

RCU used illegally from offline CPU!
rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
 no locks held by swapper/1/0.

stack backtrace:
 CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 4.1.0-rc1+ #9

Fix this by converting mm_page_free trace point into TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION
where condition is cpu_online(smp_processor_id())
