So we can deal with the explicit trace_*() calls like the below, but I
really don't like it much. It also doesn't help with function tracing.
This is really early/late in the hotplug cycle and should be considered
entry, we shouldn't be tracing anything here.

Paul, would it be possible to use a scheme similar to IRQ/NMI for
hotplug? That seems to mostly rely on atomic ops, not locks.
