But this would require adding -fpatchable-function-entry on x86, which
would increase the size of text, which could possibly have a performance
regression when tracing is disabled.

I'd have no problem if someone were to implement it, but there's a strict
requirement that it does not slow down the system when tracing is disabled.
As tracing is a second class citizen compared to the rest of the kernel.
