- * preempt_schedule_context - preempt_schedule called by tracing
- *
- * The tracing infrastructure uses preempt_enable_notrace to prevent
- * recursion and tracing preempt enabling caused by the tracing
- * infrastructure itself. But as tracing can happen in areas coming
- * from userspace or just about to enter userspace, a preempt enable
- * can occur before user_exit() is called. This will cause the scheduler
- * to be called when the system is still in usermode.
- *
- * To prevent this, the preempt_enable_notrace will use this function
- * instead of preempt_schedule() to exit user context if needed before
- * calling the scheduler.
