I've just re-reviewed the discussion. I see Colin was talking about ftrace
causing infinite loops due to recursion. Once I stumbled onto this too
(but the issue itself was due to missing 'notrace' mark), and Stephen told
that recursion protection is kind of mandatory:

I belive that the protection is actually there nowadays, and that is why
Rob does not see the problem with his patch.

So, I guess the patches are good, at least they fix real issues for Rob.

(Or I can pick this via linux-pstore.git tree, I'll let Tony decide.)

Thanks!
