I don't use ftrace, so I'm not the right person to review it - but it
seems that lots of patches for ARM are left to me to try and review,
despite me not knowing sufficient to know whether it's correct or not.
This isn't sustainable.

You can try but I suspect the same thing will happen. The only thing I
can think is if you put it in the patch system and I apply it, if
someone has a problem with it, they'll shout about it soon enough. Not
the best way, but I don't see much other option.
