Subject: [04/19] ftrace: add preempt_enable/disable notrace macros

From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@...hat.com>

The tracer may need to call preempt_enable and disable functions
for time keeping and such. The trace gets ugly when we see these
functions show up for all traces. To make the output cleaner
this patch adds preempt_enable_notrace and preempt_disable_notrace
to be used by tracer (and debugging) functions.
