So I was thinking something like this:

Subject: trace,smp: Trace all smp_function_call*() invocations
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Wed Mar 22 14:58:36 CET 2023
(Ab)use the trace_ipi_send_cpu*() family to trace all
smp_function_call*() invocations, not only those that result in an
actual IPI.
The queued entries log their callback function while the actual IPIs
are traced on generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt().
