kernel/extable.c: mark core_kernel_text notrace
core_kernel_text is used by MIPS in its function graph trace processing, so having this method traced leads to an infinite set of recursive calls such as: Call Trace: ftrace_return_to_handler+0x50/0x128 core_kernel_text+0x10/0x1b8 prepare_ftrace_return+0x6c/0x114 ftrace_graph_caller+0x20/0x44 return_to_handler+0x10/0x30 return_to_handler+0x0/0x30 return_to_handler+0x0/0x30 ftrace_ops_no_ops+0x114/0x1bc core_kernel_text+0x10/0x1b8 core_kernel_text+0x10/0x1b8 core_kernel_text+0x10/0x1b8 ftrace_ops_no_ops+0x114/0x1bc core_kernel_text+0x10/0x1b8 prepare_ftrace_return+0x6c/0x114 ftrace_graph_caller+0x20/0x44 (...) Mark the function notrace to avoid it being traced.
