With PREEMPT_RT and most of the lockdep-related options enabled I
encountered this splat when booting our DRA7 evaluation module:

As per Steve Rotstedt's suggestion I changed the trace_* calls to
trace_*_rcuidle calls. He pointed out that the trace points were getting
triggered when rcu wasn't watching.
