[34-longterm 175/260] tracing/x86: Don't use mcount in kvmclock.c

From: Paul Gortmaker
Date: Sun Jan 02 2011 - 02:42:48 EST


From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 258af47479980d8238a04568b94a4e55aa1cb537 upstream.

The guest can use the paravirt clock in kvmclock.c which is used
by sched_clock(), which in turn is used by the tracing mechanism
for timestamps, which leads to infinite recursion.

Disable mcount/tracing for kvmclock.o.
