SubjectRe: [for-next-3.11][PATCH 4/4] tracing: Fix reset of time stamps during trace_clock changes
From
Date
Greg,

I'm testing the backports, and I found that this patch depends on commit
10246fa35d4ffdfe472185d4cbf9c2dfd9a9f023 "tracing: Use flag
buffer_disabled for irqsoff tracer"

Please add that to 3.10 before applying this fix.

Thanks!

-- Steve
