mainlining shenanigans

Linus Torvalds 49afe66143 This includes two more fixes:
- Change idx variable in DO_TRACE macro to __idx to avoid name conflicts.
    A kvm event had "idx" as a parameter and it confused the macro.
 
  - Fix a race where interrupts would be traced when set_graph_function was set.
    The previous patch set increased a race window that tricked the function graph
    tracer to think it should trace interrupts when it really should not have.
    The bug has been there before, but was seldom hit. Only the last patch series
    made it more common.

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.
