Before this patch:
# ls /sys/kernel/tracing/options annotate funcgraph-duration hex stacktrace bin funcgraph-irqs irq-info sym-addr blk_cgname funcgraph-overhead latency-format sym-offset blk_cgroup funcgraph-overrun markers sym-userobj blk_classic funcgraph-proc overwrite test_nop_accept block funcgraph-tail pause-on-trace test_nop_refuse context-info func-no-repeats printk-msg-only trace_printk disable_on_free func_stack_trace print-parent userstacktrace display-graph function-fork raw verbose event-fork function-trace record-cmd funcgraph-abstime graph-time record-tgid funcgraph-cpu hash-ptr sleep-time
After this patch:
# ls /sys/kernel/tracing/options annotate disable_on_free irq-info raw trace_printk bin display-graph latency-format record-cmd userstacktrace blk_cgname event-fork markers record-tgid verbose blk_cgroup function-fork overwrite stacktrace blk_classic function-trace pause-on-trace sym-addr block hash-ptr printk-msg-only sym-offset context-info hex print-parent sym-userobj
Not good.

I think you want to set this before the __update, as doing it after just makes the update a nop.
