Subject: [PATCH RESEND] arm64: arch_timer: fix the infinite recursion when
enable ftrace and erratum workaround
When enable preempt and debug ftrace, and perform the following steps, the
system will hang:
mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug/
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
echo function_graph > current_tracer
This is because tracing the preempt_disable/enable calls would cause
trace_clock() which would get local timer to go into infinite recursion
when enable the arch timer erratum workaround for some chips, so Prevent
tracing of preempt_disable/enable() in arch_timer_reg_read_stable().
This problem is similar to the fixed by upstream commit 96b3d28bf4
("sched/clock: Prevent tracing recursion in sched_clock_cpu()").
Fixes: 6acc71ccac71 ("arm64: arch_timer: Allows a CPU-specific erratum to only affect a subset of CPUs")
