Hmm these are called from low level generic io header file 
(include/asm-generic/) where
we wouldn't have any Kconfig to control this feature flexibly and as we 
can have this as
a generic feature selectable by other architectures, wouldn't this be 
suited in kernel/trace?
I thought you were ok with the folder structure in the initial versions 
of the series?
