kernel_text_address() and __kernel_text_address() are called in
arch_stack_walk() of riscv. This results in excess amount of un-related
traces when the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS. The
situation worsens when function_graph is active, as it calls
local_irq_save/restore in each function's entry/exit. This patch adds
both functions to notrace, so they won't show up on the trace records.

I rather not add notrace just because something is noisy.

You can always just add:

 echo '*kernel_text_address' > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_ftrace_notrace

and achieve the same result.

Sounds good, I am going to drop this patch for the next revision
