Reset the ftrace buffer on close. Since we use cyclic buffers, the

5a4ccaf37f kprobes: check CONFIG_FREEZER instead of CONFIG_PM
Check CONFIG_FREEZER instead of CONFIG_PM because kprobe booster
depends on freeze_processes() and thaw_processes() when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y.

This fixes a linkage error which occurs when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, CONFIG_PM=y
and CONFIG_FREEZER=n.

745b1626dd trace: set max latency variable to zero on default
Impact: trace max latencies on start of latency tracing

This patch sets the max latency to zero whenever one of the
irq variant tracers or the wakeup tracer is set to current tracer.

Most developers expect to see output when starting up a latency
tracer. But since the max_latency is already set to max, and
it takes a latency greater than max_latency to be recorded, there
is no trace. This is not the expected behavior and has even confused
myself.

3eb36aa053 ftrace: combine stack trace in function call
Impact: less likely to interleave function and stack traces

This patch does replaces the separate stack trace on function with
a record function and stack trace together. This will switch between
the function only recording to a function and stack recording.

Also some whitespace fix ups as well.

bb3c3c95f3 ftrace: move function tracer functions out of trace.c
Impact: clean up of trace.c

The function tracer functions were put in trace.c because it needed
to share static variables that were in trace.c.  Since then, those
variables have become global for various reasons. This patch moves
the function tracer functions into trace_function.c where they belong.

5361499101 ftrace: add stack trace to function tracer
Impact: new feature to stack trace any function

Chris Mason asked about being able to pick and choose a function
and get a stack trace from it. This feature enables his request.

 # echo io_schedule > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
 # echo function > /debug/tracing/current_tracer
 # echo func_stack_trace > /debug/tracing/trace_options

Produces the following in /debug/tracing/trace:

       kjournald-702   [001]   135.673060: io_schedule <-sync_buffer
       kjournald-702   [002]   135.673671:
 <= sync_buffer
 <= __wait_on_bit
 <= out_of_line_wait_on_bit
 <= __wait_on_buffer
 <= sync_dirty_buffer
 <= journal_commit_transaction
 <= kjournald

Note, be careful about turning this on without filtering the functions.
You may find that you have a 10 second lag between typing and seeing
what you typed. This is why the stack trace for the function tracer
does not use the same stack_trace flag as the other tracers use.

e17036dac1 sched: fix update_min_vruntime
Impact: fix SCHED_IDLE latency problems

OK, so we have 1 running task A (which is obviously curr and the tree is
equally obviously empty).

'A' nicely chugs along, doing its thing, carrying min_vruntime along as it
goes.

Then some whacko speed freak SCHED_IDLE task gets inserted due to SMP
balancing, which is very likely far right, in that case

update_curr
  update_min_vruntime
    cfs_rq->rb_leftmost := true (the crazy task sitting in a tree)
      vruntime = se->vruntime

and voila, min_vruntime is waaay right of where it ought to be.

OK, so why did I write it like that to begin with...

Aah, yes.

Say we've just dequeued current

schedule
  deactivate_task(prev)
    dequeue_entity
      update_min_vruntime

Then we'll set

  vruntime = cfs_rq->min_vruntime;

we find !cfs_rq->curr, but do find someone in the tree. Then we _must_
do vruntime = se->vruntime, because

 vruntime = min_vruntime(vruntime := cfs_rq->min_vruntime, se->vruntime)

will not advance vruntime, and cause lags the other way around (which we
fixed with that initial patch: 1af5f730fc
(sched: more accurate min_vruntime accounting).

For UID grouping we initialize the root group with infinite bandwidth
which by default is actually more than the global limit, therefore the
bandwidth check always fails.

Because the root group is a phantom group (for UID grouping) we cannot
runtime adjust it, therefore we let it reflect the global bandwidth
settings.
