Subject: [PATCH 4/5] x86/ftrace: Add annotations for ftrace_arch_code_modify_prepare() and ftrace_arch_code_modify_post_process()

Sparse reports warnings

warning: context imbalance in ftrace_arch_code_modify_prepare()
- wrong count at exit
warning: context imbalance in ftrace_arch_code_modify_post_process()
- wrong count at exit

The root cause is that even if
the annotations on the function are correct,
mutex do not support annotation
This makes Sparse to complain.
To fix this,
__acquire(&text_mutex) and
__release(&text_mutex) annotations are added
inside ftrace_arch_code_modify_prepare()
and ftrace_arch_code_modify_post_process()
respectively.

Wait what? This looks like either a bug in sparse, or we just remove the
annotations. This just makes the code ugly, and looks silly.

Nack!

This one I am not all that excited about, so I am leaving it off.

Yes.

The annotations added by commit
074376ac0e1d ("ftrace/x86: Anotate text_mutex split between ...
are indeed wrong (because they don't match what the functions are
really doing / mutex operations have never been annotated).
The're also pointless since their prototypes are un-annotated.

Interesting, I would think the best way would then be to remove the
annotations. There are quite a number of them.

I will have to investigate more on mutex and annotation before moving
forward.

Thanks for feedback.
