Merge tag 'trace-v4.7-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace

Pull motr tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "Three more changes.

   - I forgot that I had another selftest to stress test the ftrace
     instance creation.  It was actually suppose to go into the 4.6
     merge window, but I never committed it.  I almost forgot about it
     again, but noticed it was missing from your tree.

   - Soumya PN sent me a clean up patch to not disable interrupts when
     taking the tasklist_lock for read, as it's unnecessary because that
     lock is never taken for write in irq context.

   - Newer gcc's can cause the jump in the function_graph code to the
     global ftrace_stub label to be a short jump instead of a long one.
     As that jump is dynamically converted to jump to the trace code to
     do function graph tracing, and that conversion expects a long jump
     it can corrupt the ftrace_stub itself (it's directly after that
     call).  One way to prevent gcc from using a short jump is to
     declare the ftrace_stub as a weak function, which we do here to
     keep gcc from optimizing too much"
