+ * Tracing gets disabled (or enabled) once per count.
+ * This function can be called at the same time on multiple CPUs.
+ * It is fine if both disable (or enable) tracing, as disabling
+ * (or enabling) the second time doesn't do anything as the
+ * state of the tracer is already disabled (or enabled).
+ * What needs to be synchronized in this case is that the count
+ * only gets decremented once, even if the tracer is disabled
+ * (or enabled) twice, as the second one is really a nop.
+ *
+ * The memory barriers guarantee that we only decrement the
+ * counter once. First the count is read to a local variable
+ * and a read barrier is used to make sure that it is loaded
+ * before checking if the tracer is in the state we want.
+ * If the tracer is not in the state we want, then the count
+ * is guaranteed to be the old count.
+ *
+ * Next the tracer is set to the state we want (disabled or enabled)
+ * then a write memory barrier is used to make sure that
+ * the new state is visible before changing the counter by
+ * one minus the old counter. This guarantees that another CPU
+ * executing this code will see the new state before seeing
+ * the new counter value, and would not do anything if the new
+ * counter is seen.
+ *
+ * Note, there is no synchronization between this and a user
+ * setting the tracing_on file. But we currently don't care
+ * about that.
