commit cb9d7fd51d9fbb329d182423bd7b92d0f8cb0e01 upstream. Some architectures need to use stop_machine() to patch functions for ftrace, and the assumption is that the stopped CPUs do not make function calls to traceable functions when they are in the stopped state. Commit ce4f06dcbb5d ("stop_machine: Touch_nmi_watchdog() after MULTI_STOP_PREPARE") added calls to the watchdog touch functions from the stopped CPUs and those functions lack notrace annotations. This leads to crashes when enabling/disabling ftrace on ARM kernels built with the Thumb-2 instruction set. Fix it by adding the necessary notrace annotations.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
