how does this work in case of NMI? trace_get_context_bit() returns 0 (it 
does not change later in the patch set). "start" in 
trace_test_and_set_recursion() is 0 zero too as used later in the patch 
set by ftrace_test_recursion_trylock(). So trace_test_and_set_recursion() 
returns 0. That is perfectly sane, but then...

... the bit is not cleared here.
