ARM: 9066/1: ftrace: pause/unpause function graph tracer in cpu_suspend()
[ Upstream commit 8252ca87c7a2111502ee13994956f8c309faad7f ]
Enabling function_graph tracer on ARM causes kernel panic, because the
function graph tracer updates the "return address" of a function in order
to insert a trace callback on function exit, it saves the function's
original return address in a return trace stack, but cpu_suspend() may not
return through the normal return path.
cpu_suspend() will resume directly via the cpu_resume path, but the return
trace stack has been set-up by the subfunctions of cpu_suspend(), which
makes the "return address" inconsistent with cpu_suspend().
This patch refers to Commit de818bd4522c40ea02a81b387d2fa86f989c9623
("arm64: kernel: pause/unpause function graph tracer in cpu_suspend()"),
fixes the issue by pausing/resuming the function graph tracer on the thread
executing cpu_suspend(), so that the function graph tracer state is kept
consistent across functions that enter power down states and never return
by effectively disabling graph tracer while they are executing.
