Pull ftrace fixes from Steven Rostedt:
 "During testing Sedat Dilek hit a "suspicious RCU usage" splat that
  pointed out a real bug.  During suspend and resume the tlb_flush
  tracepoint is called when the CPU is going offline.  As the CPU has
  been noted as offline, RCU is ignoring that CPU, which means that it
  can not use RCU protected locks.  When tracepoints are activated, they
  require RCU locking, and if RCU is ignoring a CPU that runs a
  tracepoint, there is a chance that the tracepoint could cause
  corruption.

  The solution was to change the tracepoint into a
  TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION() which allows us to check a condition to
  determine if the tracepoint should be called or not.  If the condition
  is not met, the rcu protected code will not be executed.  By adding
  the condition "cpu_online(smp_processor_id())", this will prevent the
  RCU protected code from being executed if the CPU is marked offline.

  After adding this, another bug was discovered.  As RCU checks rcu
  callers, if a rcu call is not done, there is no check (obviously).  We
  found that tracepoints could be added in RCU ignored locations and not
  have lockdep complain until the tracepoint is activated.  This missed
  places where tracepoints were added in places they should not have
  been.  To fix this, code was added in 3.18 that if lockdep is enabled,
  any tracepoint will still call the rcu checks even if the tracepoint
  is not enabled.  The bug here, is that the check does not take the
  CONDITION into account.  As the condition may prevent tracepoints from
  being activated in RCU ignored areas (as the one patch does), we get
  false positives when we enable lockdep and hit a tracepoint that the
  condition prevents it from being called in a RCU ignored location.

  The fix for this is to add the CONDITION to the rcu checks, even if
  the tracepoint is not enabled"
