With v5.2-rc1, The ftrace functions_graph tracer locks up whenever it is
enabled on arm64.
Since commit 0ea415390cd3 ("clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Use
arch_timer_read_counter to access stable counters") a function pointer
is consistently used to read the counter instead of potentially
referencing an inlinable function.
The graph tracers relies on accessing the timer counters to compute the
time spent in functions which causes the lockup when attempting to trace
these code paths.
Annotate the arm arch timer counter accessors as notrace.
Fixes: 0ea415390cd3 ("clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Use
arch_timer_read_counter to access stable counters")

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.
