Actually, the static jump label bypass is not needed here, thanks to
data->disabled which skips nested events. I was seeing the machine
reboots in earlier attempts to add a tracepoint elsewhere in the
irqsoff tracer (before the delta checks). We should be OK with the
static jump label after all.
I'll simplify that part of the patch before resubmitting.
Thanks,
Mathieu
