[PATCH] arm64: use preempt_disable_notrace in _percpu_read/write

From: Chunyan Zhang
Date: Thu Sep 08 2016 - 08:47:02 EST


When debug preempt or preempt tracer is enabled, preempt_count_add/sub()
can be traced by function and function graph tracing, and
preempt_disable/enable() would call preempt_count_add/sub(), so in Ftrace
subsystem we should use preempt_disable/enable_notrace instead.

In the commit 345ddcc882d8 ("ftrace: Have set_ftrace_pid use the bitmap
like events do") the function this_cpu_read() was added to
trace_graph_entry(), and if this_cpu_read() calls preempt_disable(), graph
tracer will go into a recursive loop, even if the tracing_on is
disabled.

So this patch change to use preempt_enable/disable_notrace instead in
this_cpu_read().

Since Yonghui Yang helped a lot to find the root cause of this problem,
so also add his SOB.
