So specifically rcu_dynticks_task_trace_{enter,exit}() are now orphaned.
After this patch, nothing calls them.

However, looking at this again, we've got:

__context_tracking_enter()
rcu_user_enter()
rcu_eqs_enter()
rcu_dynticks_eqs_enter()
rcu_dynticks_task_trace_enter()
rcu_dynticks_inc();
rcu_dynticks_task_enter();

ct_seq_user_enter()
atomic_add_return()

and on the other end:

__context_tracking_exit()
ct_seq_user_exit()
atomic_add_return()

rcu_user_exit()
rcu_esq_exit()
rcu_dynticks_task_exit()
rcu_dynticks_eqs_exit()
rcu_dynticks_inc()
rcu_dynticks_task_trace_exit()

And since we want to replace dynticks_inc() with ct_seq_*() the
rcu_dynticks_task_{enter,exit}() ought to be pulled before that..

Instead I orphaned rcu_dynticks_task_trace_{enter,exit}() which should
more or less stay where they are.

I seems to have confused the two :/
