Linus Torvalds 45554b2357 Commit 79c6f448c8 ("tracing: Fix hwlat kthread migration") fixed a
bug that was caused by a race condition in initializing the hwlat
 thread. When fixing this code, I realized that it should have been done
 differently. Instead of doing the rewrite and sending that to stable,
 I just sent the above commit to fix the bug that should be back ported.
 
 This commit is on top of the quick fix commit to rewrite the code the
 way it should have been written in the first place.
