- * ftrace_preempt_disable - disable preemption scheduler safe
- *
- * When tracing can happen inside the scheduler, there exists
- * cases that the tracing might happen before the need_resched
- * flag is checked. If this happens and the tracer calls
- * preempt_enable (after a disable), a schedule might take place
- * causing an infinite recursion.
- *
- * To prevent this, we read the need_resched flag before
- * disabling preemption. When we want to enable preemption we
- * check the flag, if it is set, then we call preempt_enable_no_resched.
- * Otherwise, we call preempt_enable.
- *
- * The rational for doing the above is that if need_resched is set
- * and we have yet to reschedule, we are either in an atomic location
- * (where we do not need to check for scheduling) or we are inside
- * the scheduler and do not want to resched.

- * If resched is set, then we are either inside an atomic or

- * otherwise). In this case, we do not want to call normal
- * preempt_enable, but preempt_enable_no_resched instead.
