      Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
       "This contains 4 fixes.
      
        The first two fix the case where full RCU debugging is enabled,
        enabling function tracing causes a live lock of the system.  This is
        due to the added debug checks in rcu_dereference_raw() that is used by
        the function tracer.  These checks are also traced by the function
        tracer as well as cause enough overhead to the function tracer to slow
        down the system enough that the time to finish an interrupt can take
        longer than when the next interrupt is triggered, causing a live lock
        from the timer interrupt.
      
        Talking this over with Paul McKenney, we came up with a fix that adds
        a new rcu_dereference_raw_notrace() that does not perform these added
        checks, and let the function tracer use that.
      
        The third commit fixes a failed compile when branch tracing is
        enabled, due to the conversion of the trace_test_buffer() selftest
        that the branch trace wasn't converted for.
      
        The forth patch fixes a bug caught by the RCU lockdep code where a
        rcu_read_lock() is performed when rcu is disabled (either going to or
        from idle, or user space).  This happened on the irqsoff tracer as it
        calls task_uid().  The fix here was to use current_uid() when possible
        that doesn't use rcu locking.  Which luckily, is always used when
        irqsoff calls this code."
