Hi Prateek,
Thanks for the patch. Note, I think a better subject is:
tracing: Fix lock inversion caused by trace_event_enable_tgid_record()

What's this Change-Id? Something internal?
I'll be adding:
Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/0101016ecc80a1fa-27cc3e87-c16d-4cd6-b3c6-9c893010fdef-000000@us-west-2.amazonses.com
I'll test this out, and probably even add a stable tag.
