  x86/kprobes: Prevent kprobes to probe on save_args()
  irq_work: Drop cmpxchg() result
  perf: Fix owner-list vs exit
  x86, hw_nmi: Move backtrace_mask declaration under ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG
  tracing: Fix recursive user stack trace
  perf,hw_breakpoint: Initialize hardware api earlier
  x86: Ignore trap bits on single step exceptions
  tracing: Force arch_local_irq_* notrace for paravirt
  tracing: Fix module use of trace_bprintk()
