Ben, if you get some time (no rush really), can you give an acked-by
on each of the PPC patches. The first patch is ftrace generic, so
you can ignore that one.

I'll keep it in the RFC state, until I have an ack from either you or
Paul.

I'm not sure if these changes should go via you or Ingo. I'm thinking 
that, since the first change modifies core ftrace code, I'll send it 
towards tip, since all the rest depends on that first change.

Thanks,
