Jens,

Can you give me an acked-by on this patch and I can take the series through
my tree.

On phone, hope this works:

Or perhaps this doesn't even need to test the trace_async_init flag and can
always do the work queue? Does blk_trace ever do tracing at boot up? That
is, before user space starts?

Not via the traditonal way of running blktrace.
