When enable preempt and ftrace, and perform the following steps, the system 
will hang:
mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug/
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
echo function_graph > current_tracer

This is because the preempt_disable and preempt_enable calls would cause 
infinite
recursion for some chips which needs the timer erratum workaround and the system
will hang, so use the preempt_disable/enable_notrace calls to prevent recursion.

Fixes: 6acc71ccac71 ("arm64: arch_timer: Allows a CPU-specific erratum to only 
affect a subset of CPUs")
