Regardless of tracing. I now have my RT hat on. The spin_locks that are
converted to mutex use migrate disable. The fact that migrate_disable
in modules are close to 10x slower than the same code in-kernel is
troubling to say the least. It means that modules in RT take a hit
every time they take a spin_lock().

The migrate disable being slow for modules is no longer just a tracing
issue. It's a PREEMPT_RT issue.
