When looking through some instruction traces I noticed our tracepoint
checks were inline. It turns out we don't have CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL
enabled.
By enabling CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL we replace a load/compare/branch with
a nop at every tracepoint call. For example in do_IRQ:
CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL disabled:
stdx 3,11,9
lwz 0,8(29)
cmpwi 7,0,0
bne- 7,.L124
bl .irq_enter
CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL enabled:
stdx 3,11,9
nop
bl .irq_enter
