    Impact: build fix on non-lockdep architectures
    
    Some architectures do not support a way to read the irq flags that
    is set from "local_irq_save(flags)" to determine if interrupts were
    disabled or enabled. Ftrace uses this information to display to the user
    if the trace occurred with interrupts enabled or disabled.
    
    Besides the fact that those archs that do not support this will fail to
    compile, unless they fix it, we do not want to have the trace simply
    say interrupts were not disabled or they were enabled, without knowing
    the real answer.
    
    This patch adds a 'X' in the output to let the user know that the
    architecture they are running on does not support a way for the tracer
    to determine if interrupts were enabled or disabled. It also lets those
    same archs compile with tracing enabled.
