      tracing/function-graph-tracer: introduce __notrace_funcgraph to filter special functions · 8b96f011

      Impact: trace more functions
      
      When the function graph tracer is configured, three more files are not
      traced to prevent only four functions to be traced. And this impacts the
      normal function tracer too.
      
      arch/x86/kernel/process_64/32.c:
      
      I had crashes when I let this file traced. After some debugging, I saw
      that the "current" task point was changed inside__swtich_to(), ie:
      "write_pda(pcurrent, next_p);" inside process_64.c Since the tracer store
      the original return address of the function inside current, we had
      crashes. Only __switch_to() has to be excluded from tracing.
      
      kernel/module.c and kernel/extable.c:
      
      Because of a function used internally by the function graph tracer:
      __kernel_text_address()
      
      To let the other functions inside these files to be traced, this patch
      introduces the __notrace_funcgraph function prefix which is __notrace if
      function graph tracer is configured and nothing if not.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
