As Masami has pointed out, the prefix trace_ should not be used. Also 
having trace_latency_ and latency_trace_ is kind of confusing. What 
about {start|stop}_latency_timing()? It would match the existing 
{start|stop}_critical_timing(). Or is it too close and it leads to 
confusion?

Another idea is {start|stop}_latency_preempt(). This matches the 
trace_latency_preempt_enable() function.

cheers,
daniel
