In my config with PROVE_LOCKING=n and FTRACE=y (which defaults
IRQSOFF_TRACER to y), I get the following warning from make oldconfig.

scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig arch/x86/Kconfig
warning: (IRQSOFF_TRACER && TRACING_SUPPORT && FTRACE &&
TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && !ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET) selects
TRACE_IRQFLAGS which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL &&
TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && PROVE_LOCKING)

The problem is that TRACE_IRQFLAGS depends on PROVE_LOCKING.
Should it select PROVE_LOCKING instead? or is there a better way to fix
this?

regards

Richard
