I think David's patch missed kernel/trace/trace_export.c

struct ftrace_event_call __used                                         \
__attribute__((__aligned__(4)))                                         \
__attribute__((section("_ftrace_events"))) event_##call = {             \

and kernel/trace/trace.h:

#define FTRACE_ENTRY(call, struct_name, id, tstruct, print)             \
        extern struct ftrace_event_call                                 \
        __attribute__((__aligned__(4))) event_##call;

does it help if you remove these ?
