There's no reason to use the raw_local_irq_save() in trace_clock_global.
The local_irq_save() version is fine, and does not cause the bug in lockdep.

trace_clock.c includes spinlock.h, which ends up including
asm/system.h, which in turn includes linux/irqflags.h in x86.

So the definition of raw_local_irq_save is luckily covered there,
but this is not the case in parisc:

   tip/kernel/trace/trace_clock.c:86: error: implicit declaration of function 'raw_local_irq_save'
   tip/kernel/trace/trace_clock.c:112: error: implicit declaration of function 'raw_local_irq_restore'

We need to include linux/irqflags.h directly from trace_clock.c
to avoid such build error.

The raw_spin* namespace was taken by lockdep for the architecture
specific implementations. raw_spin_* would be the ideal name space for
the spinlocks which are not converted to sleeping locks in preempt-rt.

Linus suggested to convert the raw_ to arch_ locks and cleanup the
name space instead of using an artifical name like core_spin,
atomic_spin or whatever

No functional change.

Disabling interrupts in trace_clock_local takes quite a performance
hit to the recording of traces. Using perf top we see:

Where trace_clock_local is 40% of the tracing, and the time for recording
a trace according to ring_buffer_benchmark is 210ns. After converting
the interrupts to preemption disabling we have from perf top:

               53.00 -  0.7% : tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick

Where trace_clock_local drops from 40% to only taking 4% of the total time.
The trace time also goes from 210ns down to 179ns (31ns).

I talked with Peter Zijlstra about the impact that sched_clock may have
without having interrupts disabled, and he told me that if a timer interrupt
comes in, sched_clock may report a wrong time.

Balancing a seldom incorrect timestamp with a 15% performance boost, I'll
take the performance boost.

The prev_trace_clock_time is only read or written to when the
trace_clock_lock is taken. For better perfomance, they
should share the same cache line.

Using the function_graph tracer in recent kernels generates a spew of
preemption BUGs. Fix this by not requiring trace_clock_local() users
to disable preemption themselves.

Impact: implement new tracing timestamp APIs

Add three trace clock variants, with differing scalability/precision
tradeoffs:

 -   local: CPU-local trace clock
 -  medium: scalable global clock with some jitter
 -  global: globally monotonic, serialized clock

Make the ring-buffer use the local trace clock internally.
