[PATCH 5.4 386/434] s390/ftrace: fix endless recursion in function_graph tracer

[ Upstream commit 6feeee8efc53035c3195b02068b58ae947538aa4 ]

The following sequence triggers a kernel stack overflow on s390x:

mount -t tracefs tracefs /sys/kernel/tracing
cd /sys/kernel/tracing
echo function_graph > current_tracer
[crash]

This is because preempt_count_{add,sub} are in the list of traced
functions, which can be demonstrated by:

echo preempt_count_add >set_ftrace_filter
echo function_graph > current_tracer
[crash]

The stack overflow happens because get_tod_clock_monotonic() gets called
by ftrace but itself calls preempt_{disable,enable}(), which leads to a
endless recursion. Fix this by using preempt_{disable,enable}_notrace().
