-	select GENERIC_TRACER
-	help
-	  kmemtrace provides tracing for slab allocator functions, such as
-	  kmalloc, kfree, kmem_cache_alloc, kmem_cache_free, etc. Collected
-	  data is then fed to the userspace application in order to analyse
-	  allocation hotspots, internal fragmentation and so on, making it
-	  possible to see how well an allocator performs, as well as debug
-	  and profile kernel code.
-
-	  This requires an userspace application to use. See
-	  Documentation/trace/kmemtrace.txt for more information.
-
-	  Saying Y will make the kernel somewhat larger and slower. However,
-	  if you disable kmemtrace at run-time or boot-time, the performance
-	  impact is minimal (depending on the arch the kernel is built for).

- * ftrace_preempt_disable - disable preemption scheduler safe

- * preempt_enable (after a disable), a schedule might take place
- * causing an infinite recursion.
- *
- * To prevent this, we read the need_resched flag before
- * disabling preemption. When we want to enable preemption we
- * check the flag, if it is set, then we call preempt_enable_no_resched.
- * Otherwise, we call preempt_enable.
- *
- * The rational for doing the above is that if need_resched is set
- * and we have yet to reschedule, we are either in an atomic location
- * (where we do not need to check for scheduling) or we are inside
- * the scheduler and do not want to resched.
