tracing: add tracing_on/tracing_off to kernel.h
Impact: cleanup
The functions tracing_start/tracing_stop have been moved to kernel.h.
These are not the functions a developer most likely wants to use
when they want to insert a place to stop tracing and restart it from
user space.
tracing_start/tracing_stop was created to work with things like
suspend to ram, where even calling smp_processor_id() can crash the
system. The tracing_start/tracing_stop was used to stop the tracer from
doing anything. These are still light weight functions, but add a bit
more overhead to be able to stop the tracers. They also have no interface
back to userland. That is, if the kernel calls tracing_stop, userland
can not start tracing.
What a developer most likely wants to use is tracing_on/tracing_off.
These are very light weight functions (simply sets or clears a bit).
These functions just stop recording into the ring buffer. The tracers
don't even know that this happens except that they would receive NULL
from the ring_buffer_lock_reserve function.
Also, there's a way for the user land to enable or disable this bit.
In debugfs/tracing/tracing_on, a user may echo "0" (same as tracing_off())
or echo "1" (same as tracing_on()) into this file. This becomes handy when
a kernel developer is debugging and wants tracing to turn off when it
hits an anomaly. Then the developer can examine the trace, and restart
tracing if they want to try again (echo 1 > tracing_on).
This patch moves the prototypes for tracing_on/tracing_off to kernel.h
and comments their use, so that a kernel developer will know how
to use them.

Impact: fix function graph trace hang / drop pointless softirq on UP
While debugging a function graph trace hang on an old PII, I saw
that it consumed most of its time on the timer interrupt. And
the domain rebalancing softirq was the most concerned.
The timer interrupt calls trigger_load_balance() which will
decide if it is worth to schedule a rebalancing softirq.
In case of builtin UP kernel, no problem arises because there is
no domain question.
In case of builtin SMP kernel running on an SMP box, still no
problem, the softirq will be raised each time we reach the
next_balance time.
In case of builtin SMP kernel running on a UP box (most distros
provide default SMP kernels, whatever the box you have), then
the CPU is attached to the NULL sched domain. So a kind of
unexpected behaviour happen:
trigger_load_balance() -> raises the rebalancing softirq later
on softirq: run_rebalance_domains() -> rebalance_domains() where
the for_each_domain(cpu, sd) is not taken because of the NULL
domain we are attached at. Which means rq->next_balance is never
updated. So on the next timer tick, we will enter
trigger_load_balance() which will always reschedule() the
rebalacing softirq:
if (time_after_eq(jiffies, rq->next_balance))
raise_softirq(SCHED_SOFTIRQ);
So for each tick, we process this pointless softirq.
This patch fixes it by checking if we are attached to the null
domain before raising the softirq, another possible fix would be
to set the maximal possible JIFFIES value to rq->next_balance if
we are attached to the NULL domain.

ATA specs were vague about what this field should contain and a number of drives

libata: make sure port is thawed when skipping resets
When SCR access is available and the link is offline, softreset is
skipped as it only wastes time and some controllers don't respond very
well. However, the skip path forgot to thaw the port, which not only
blocks further event notification from the port but also causes
repeated EH invocations on the same event on drivers which rely on
->thaw() to clear events if the IRQ is shared with another device or
port.
This problem has always been there but is uncovered by recent sata_nv
nf2/3 change which dropped hardreset support while maintaining SCR
access. nf2/3 doesn't clear hotplug event mask from the interrupt
handler but relies on ->thaw() to clear them. When the hardreset was
there, the reset action was never skipped and the port was always
thawed but, with the hardreset gone, ->prereset() determines that
there's no need for softreset and both ->softreset() and ->thaw() are
skipped. This leads to stuck hotplug event in the IRQ status register
triggering hotplug event whenever IRQ is delieverd on the same IRQ.
As the controller shares the same IRQ for both ports, this happens on
every IO if one port is occpupied and the other isn't.
This patch fixes the problem by making sure that the port is thawed on
reset-skip path.
