Linus Torvalds 81bcfe5e48 Alexei discovered a race condition in modules failing to load that
can cause a ftrace check to trigger and disable ftrace. This is because
 of the way modules are registered to ftrace. Their functions are
 loaded in the ftrace function tables but set to "disabled" since
 they are still in the process of being loaded by the module. After
 the module is finished, it calls back into the ftrace infrastructure
 to enable it. Looking deeper into the locations that access all the
 functions in the table, I found more locations that should ignore
 the disabled ones.
