Subject[for-next][PATCH 36/46] tracing: Use the ring-buffer nesting to allow synthetic events to be traced
From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Synthetic events can be done within the recording of other events. Notify
the ring buffer via ring_buffer_nest_start() and ring_buffer_nest_end() that
this is intended and not to block it due to its recursion protection.
