Subject: [PATCH] trace: irqsoff: Fix function tracing in preempt and preemptirqsoff tracers

All functions aren't traced in critical sections where preemption is disabled
and interrupts are enabled in preempt* tracers because current behavior is to
check if interrupts are disabled and if they are not, then we don't trace these
functions. So here we do the correct checks depending on tracer type and allow
these functions to be traced.

One example is when interrupts are enabled before softirq processing, with the
patch, these functions are traced as well.
