State transitions from 1->0->1 and N->2->1 callbacks require RCU synchronization. Rather than performing the RCU synchronization every time the state change occurs, which is quite slow when many tracepoints are registered in batch, instead keep a snapshot of the RCU state on the most recent transitions which belong to a chain, and conditionally wait for a grace period on the last transition of the chain if one g.p. has not elapsed since the last snapshot.
This applies to both RCU and SRCU.

Changes since v2: - Combine duplicated code from add func case TP_FUNC_2 and TP_FUNC_N using a fallthrough. - Add comment. --- kernel/tracepoint.c | 81 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 67 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-)
