[PATCH 4/4] tracing: Allow benchmark to be enabled at early_initcall()

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Tue Nov 29 2016 - 10:01:10 EST


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

The trace event start up selftests fails when the trace benchmark is
enabled, because it is disabled during boot. It really only needs to be
disabled before scheduling is set up, as it creates a thread.
