Subject: [patch part-II V2 01/13] context_tracking: Ensure that the critical path cannot be instrumented

context tracking lacks a few protection mechanisms against instrumentation:

 - While the core functions are marked NOKPROBE they lack protection
   against function tracing which is required as the function entry/exit
   points can be utilized by BPF.

 - static functions invoked from the protected functions need to be marked
   as well as they can be instrumented otherwise.

 - using plain inline allows the compiler to emit traceable and probable
   functions.

Fix this by adding the missing notrace/NOKPROBE annotations and converting
the plain inlines to __always_inline.
