Merge tag 'trace-v4.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Restructure of lockdep and latency tracers

   This is the biggest change. Joel Fernandes restructured the hooks
   from irqs and preemption disabling and enabling. He got rid of a lot
   of the preprocessor #ifdef mess that they caused.

   He turned both lockdep and the latency tracers to use trace events
   inserted in the preempt/irqs disabling paths. But unfortunately,
   these started to cause issues in corner cases. Thus, parts of the
   code was reverted back to where lockdep and the latency tracers just
   get called directly (without using the trace events). But because the
   original change cleaned up the code very nicely we kept that, as well
   as the trace events for preempt and irqs disabling, but they are
   limited to not being called in NMIs.

 - Have trace events use SRCU for "rcu idle" calls. This was required
   for the preempt/irqs off trace even...
