Hmm, according to 17.3.2 in vol 3 of SDM (and table 6-1 there), that 
indeed seems to be the case, so we should be fine.

That should indeed be doable, under the asumption that noone is doing any 
int3 games before we've switched away from entry trampoline.

I've briefly looked, and seems like we have proper notrace anotations for 
stackleak_erase(), which seems to be the only C (ftrace-able) code that's 
running on a trampoline (off-topic: where does PTI code make sure that we 
actually map this symbol into user pagetables in case we're not doing 
global mapping?).
