right, I can't see it in mcount adresses.. but it begins with instructions
that appears to be nops, which would suggest it's traceable

	ffff80001031f430 <vfs_truncate>:
	ffff80001031f430: 5f 24 03 d5   hint    #34
	ffff80001031f434: 1f 20 03 d5   nop
	ffff80001031f438: 1f 20 03 d5   nop
	ffff80001031f43c: 3f 23 03 d5   hint    #25

I'm building on arm now, let's see

could you please verify that you don't see vfs_truncate in
available_filter_functions?

 # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/available_filter_functions | grep vfs_truncate
