This made it hard to debug because when the developer tried to reproduce it, if their compiler still inlined the function, the bug would not trigger. The solution back then was simply to add "notrace" to "inline" which would make sure all functions that are marked inline are never traced even when the compiler decides to not inline them. A lot has changed over the last 10 years. 1) ftrace_test_recursion_trylock() is now used by all ftrace hooks which will prevent the recursive crashes from happening that was caused by inlined functions being traced. 2) noinstr is now used to mark pretty much all functions that would also cause problems if they are traced. Today, it is no longer a problem if an inlined function is not inlined and is traced, at least on x86. Removing notrace from inline has been requested several times over the years. I believe it is now safe to do so. Currently only x86 uses this.

Currently only x86 adds it.
