Yeah, my fingers don't take direction all that well.

Ok, I thought it was clear what happens.

sched,rt: __always_inline preemptible_lazy()

Functions called within a notrace function must either also be
notrace or be inlined, lest recursion blow the stack.

homer: # nm kernel/sched/core.o|grep preemptible_lazy
00000000000000b5 t preemptible_lazy

echo wakeup_rt > current_tracer ==> Welcome to infinity.
