Note, I enabled function tracing to trace the scheduler function:

 # trace-cmd start -p function -l schedule

And then ran cyclictest. That does not cause any noticeable increase
in latency (try it). So there is some kind of side effect with the
trace event itself, and not the recording of the event.
