Handle the trace interrupt in the hardirq context, make sure the irq
core won't threaded it by declaring IRQF_NO_THREAD and userspace won't
balance it by declaring IRQF_NOBALANCING. Otherwise we may violate the
synchronization requirements of the perf core, referenced to the
change of arm-ccn PMU
commit 0811ef7e2f54 ("bus: arm-ccn: fix PMU interrupt flags").
In the interrupt handler we mainly doing 2 things:
- Copy the data from the local DMA buffer to the AUX buffer
- Commit the data in the AUX buffer

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.
