Hmm, I'm still working on my pull request for the merge window, and if
this already went in, I could just add this, and let it conflict. I'm
sure Linus will have no problems in fixing up the conflicts.

I should change the subject, as it is the same ;-) Perhaps to:

 tracing: Clean up "if" macro

But it would be good to find out why this fixes the issue you see.
Perhaps its because we remove the internal if statement?
