Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"Masami found an off by one bug in the code that keeps "notrace"
functions from being traced by kprobes. During my testing, I found
that there's places that we may want to add kprobes to notrace, thus
we may end up changing this code before 4.19 is released.
The history behind this change is that we found that adding kprobes to
various notrace functions caused the kernel to crashed. We took the
safe route and decided not to allow kprobes to trace any notrace
function.
But because notrace is added to functions that just cause weird side
effects to the function tracer, but are still safe, preventing kprobes
for all notrace functios may be too much of a big hammer.
One such place is __schedule() is marked notrace, to keep function
tracer from doing strange recursive loops when it gets traced with
NEED_RESCHED set. With this change, one can not add kprobes to the
scheduler.
Masami also added code to use gcov on ftrace"
