Why can't this be traced ?

This one is weird on x86 32 : a 32 bits value is casted into a
(cycles_t), which is an unsigned long long. So we think we have a 64
bits counter when in fact we only have 32 bits. How long before the wrap
around ?

Why ? ... hrm, this is dangerous : you will then have to look at _every_
code path that can be run in an NMI context (printk included) and mark
them "notrace" or make sure your tracer is disabled when they are run.

Same here.. we must be careful, or use atomic ops instead of interrupt
disabling.

Agreed on this one. It get's called when new modules are loaded for
in-kernel faults. Hard to trace. Will vmalloc_fault, an inline function,
trigger an mcount call ?
