tracing/sched: Make preempt_schedule() notrace
The function tracer code uses ftrace_preempt_disable() to disable preemption instead of normal preempt_disable(). But there's a slight race condition that may cause it to lose a preemption check. This was made to keep the function tracer from recursing on itself by disabling preemption then having the enable call the function tracer again, causing infinite recursion. The bug was assumed to happen if the call was just in schedule, but this is incorrect. The bug is caused by preempt_schedule() which is called by preempt_enable(). The calling of preempt_enable() when NEED_RESCHED was set would call preempt_schedule() which would call the function tracer again. By making the preempt_schedule() and add_preempt_count() notrace then this will prevent the inifinite recursion. This is because the add_preempt_count() would stop the preempt_enable() in the function tracer from calling preempt_schedule() again. The sub_preempt_count() is also made notrace just to keep it symmetric. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
