So here is a slightly updated FTRACE_WITH_REGS plus live patching.
Reminder: make sure you have a prolog-pad gcc, and this in your
top level Makefile:
ifdef CONFIG_LIVEPATCH
KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-option,-fno-ipa-ra)
endif
Tested with v4.7-rc3 + gcc-6.1
Changes since v1:
* instead of a comment "should be CC_USING_PROLOG_PAD":
do it. CC_FLAGS_FTRACE holds it now, and the IPA
disabler has become a separate issue (see above).
