This fails to build when timerlat is not enabled:

/work/git/linux-trace.git/kernel/trace/trace_osnoise.c: In function ‘osnoise_tracer_init’:
/work/git/linux-trace.git/kernel/trace/trace_osnoise.c:2161:18: error: ‘struct osnoise_data’ has no member named ‘timerlat_tracer’

Also, I hate all the #ifdef muckery in this file. What you need is:

static struct osnoise_data {
	u64	sample_period;		/* total sampling period */
	u64	sample_runtime;		/* active sampling portion of period */
	u64	stop_tracing;		/* stop trace in the internal operation (loop/irq) */
	u64	stop_tracing_total;	/* stop trace in the final operation (report/thread) */
#ifdef CONFIG_TIMERLAT_TRACER
	u64	timerlat_period;	/* timerlat period */
	u64	print_stack;		/* print IRQ stack if total > */
	int	timerlat_tracer;	/* timerlat tracer */
#endif
	bool	tainted;		/* infor users and developers about a problem */
} osnoise_data = {
	.sample_period			= DEFAULT_SAMPLE_PERIOD,
	.sample_runtime			= DEFAULT_SAMPLE_RUNTIME,
	.stop_tracing			= 0,
	.stop_tracing_total		= 0,
#ifdef CONFIG_TIMERLAT_TRACER
	.print_stack			= 0,
	.timerlat_period		= DEFAULT_TIMERLAT_PERIOD,
	.timerlat_tracer		= 0,
#endif
};


#ifdef CONFIG_TIMERLAT_TRACER
static bool timerlat_enbabled()
{
	return osnoise_data.timerlat_tracer;
}
static void timerlat_softirq_exit(void)
{
	struct timerlat_variables *tlat_var;
	tlat_var = this_cpu_tmr_var();
	if (!tlat_var->tracing_thread) {
		osn_var->softirq.arrival_time = 0;
		osn_var->softirq.delta_start = 0;
	}
}
#else
static inline bool timerlat_enbabled()
{
	return false;
}
static void timerlat_softirq_exit(void) { }
#endif

Then in places like trace_softirq_exit_callback() you can have:

	if (unlikely(timerlat_enabled())
		timerlat_softirq_exit();

And this will help in making mistakes like you did with the compile
failure.

So there should be no #ifdef in any functions (it's fine to wrap
functions).
