7f47d8cc039f ("x86, tracing, perf: Add trace point for MSR accesses") added
tracing of msr read and write, but because of complexity in having
tracepoints in headers, and even more so for a core header like msr.h, not
to mention the bloat a tracepoint adds to inline functions, a helper
function is needed to be called from the header.
Use the new tracepoint_enabled() macro in tracepoint-defs.h to test if the
tracepoint is active before calling the helper function, instead of open
coding the same logic, which requires knowing the internals of a tracepoint.

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.
