Yuck what an ugly patch. Please don't uglify the C code with #ifdefs!

If you want to hide the "CALLER_ADDR" for other archs, then simply do:

# define trace_preempt_on(a0, a1) do { } while (0)
# define trace_preempt_off(a0, a1) do { } while (0)

and be done with it.

Oh, you should add a comment before these defines to the effect of:

/*
* Use defines instead of static inlines because some arches will make
* code out of the CALLER_ADDR, when we really want these to be a real
* nop.
*/

That way, you will document why we use defines instead of static
inlines.
