From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" The function graph trampoline is called from the function trampoline and both do a save and restore of registers. The save of registers done by the function trampoline when only the function graph tracer is running is a waste of CPU cycles. As the function graph tracer trampoline in x86 is dependent from the function trampoline, we can call it directly when a function is only being traced by the function graph trampoline. Acked-by: H.
