CONFIG_RCU_TRACE is still very much alive in its new home at
kernel/rcu/Kconfig.debug:

config RCU_TRACE
	bool "Enable tracing for RCU"
	depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
	default y if TREE_RCU
	select TRACE_CLOCK
	help
	  This option enables additional tracepoints for ftrace-style
	  event tracing.

	  Say Y here if you want to enable RCU tracing
	  Say N if you are unsure.

That said, I need to make it default to "y" if PREEMPT_RCU as well as
the current TREE_RCU.  Would that help?

							Thanx, Paul
