[PATCH v2] arm64: arch_timer: avoid infinite recursion when ftrace is enabled

[Ding Tianhong <dingtianhong@huawei.com>]

On platforms with an arch timer erratum workaround, it's possible for
arch_timer_reg_read_stable() to recurse into itself when certain
tracing options are enabled, leading to stack overflows and related
problems.

For example, when PREEMPT_TRACER and FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER are
selected, it's possible to trigger this with:

$ mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug/
$ echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer

The problem is that in such cases, preempt_disable() instrumentation
attempts to acquire a timestamp via trace_clock(), resulting in a call
back to arch_timer_reg_read_stable(), and hence recursion.

This patch changes arch_timer_reg_read_stable() to use
preempt_{disable,enable}_notrace(), which avoids this.

This problem is similar to the fixed by upstream commit 96b3d28bf4
("sched/clock: Prevent tracing recursion in sched_clock_cpu()").
