Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
 "A regression showed up that there's a large delay when enabling all
  events.  This was prevalent when FTRACE_SELFTEST was enabled which
  enables all events several times, and caused the system bootup to
  pause for over a minute.

  This was tracked down to an addition of a synchronize_sched()
  performed when system call tracepoints are unregistered.

  The synchronize_sched() is needed between the unregistering of the
  system call tracepoint and a deletion of a tracing instance buffer.
  But placing the synchronize_sched() in the unreg of *every* system
  call tracepoint is a bit overboard.  A single synchronize_sched()
  before the deletion of the instance is sufficient"

  tracing: Only run synchronize_sched() at instance deletion time
