[PATCH 2/2] ARM: Enable tracing around vfp preemption enable/disable

Mon Mar 4 17:43:03 EST 2013


The VFP code enables and disables preemption but doesn't call
into the tracer except for in the VFP bounce code to say that
preemption has been enabled again. Trace the preemption disable
and enable calls made in assembly so that we can accurately
measure how long preemption is disabled while handling VFP
exceptions.
