[PATCH 3/3][RFC] cpuidle/tracing: Denote the tracepoints as being in rcu_idle_exit()section

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Tue Feb 07 2012 - 10:11:09 EST


From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@xxxxxxxxxx>

As the tracepoints in the cpuidle code are called when rcu_idle_exit() is in
effect, the _rcuidle() version must be used, otherwise the rcu_read_lock()s
that protect the tracepoint will not be honored.
