The commit eb1f00237aca ("lockdep,trace: Expose tracepoints"), started to
expose us for tracepoints. For imx6q cpuidle, this leads to an RCU splat
according to below.
[6.870684] [<c0db7690>] (_raw_spin_lock) from [<c011f6a4>] (imx6q_enter_wait+0x18/0x9c)
[6.878846] [<c011f6a4>] (imx6q_enter_wait) from [<c09abfb0>] (cpuidle_enter_state+0x168/0x5e4)
To fix the problem, let's assign the corresponding idlestate->flags the
CPUIDLE_FLAG_RCU_IDLE bit, which enables us to call rcu_idle_enter|exit()
at the proper point.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
