Subject: [PATCH kcsan 3/3] kcsan: Disable branch tracing in core runtime
From: Marco Elver <elver@...gle.com>
Disable branch tracing in core KCSAN runtime if branches are being
traced (TRACE_BRANCH_PROFILING). This it to avoid its performance
impact, but also avoid recursion in case KCSAN is enabled for the branch
tracing runtime.
The latter had already been a problem for KASAN:
