Though the C functions themselves are mostly safe, if these functions are traced, there is a possibility that we may take an exception. For instance, in certain conditions, the ftrace code uses WARN(), which uses a 'trap' to do its job. For such scenarios, introduce a new field in paca 'ftrace_disabled', which is checked on ftrace entry before continuing. This field can then be set to a non-zero value to disable/pause ftrace, and reset to zero to resume ftrace. Since KVM is the only user for this currently, we guard the ftrace/mcount checks within CONFIG_KVM. This can later be removed if/when there are other users. Signed-off-by: Naveen N.
