Subject: [RESEND PATCH v2 1/2] ftrace: disable preemption between ftrace_test_recursion_trylock/unlock()

As the documentation explained, ftrace_test_recursion_trylock()
and ftrace_test_recursion_unlock() were supposed to disable and
enable preemption properly, however currently this work is done
outside of the function, which could be missing by mistake.

This path will make sure the preemption was disabled when trylock()
succeed, and the unlock() will enable the preemption if previously
enabled.

I think that you misunderstood. Steven proposed to put the comment before
ftrace_test_recursion_trylock() call site in klp_ftrace_handler().

Side note... the comment will eventually conflict with peterz's

Steven, would you like to share your opinion on this patch?

If klp_synchronize_transition() will be removed anyway, the comments
will be meaningless and we can just drop it :-P

The comment will still be needed in some form. We will handle it depending
on what gets merged first. peterz's patches are not ready yet.

Ok, then I'll move it before trylock() inside klp_ftrace_handler() anyway.
