Linus pointed out that he was not pleased by the implementation of
faultable syscall tracepoints because it contains conditional locking.
This patch series addresses those concerns.
This is based on commit 06afb0f36106 ("Merge tag 'trace-v6.13' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace")
Many thanks to Linus for the analysis and feedback.
