Yup rebase glitch.

Thanks !

I'll merge that in.

The main obscure area is that business with the irqsoff tracer and thus
the need to create stack frames around calls to trace_hardirqs_* ... we
do it in some places and not others, but I've not managed to make it
crash either. I need to get to the bottom of that, and possibly provide
proper macro helpers like ppc64 has to do it.

Cheers,
Ben.
