OK. So that's about -0.6%. Are we happy with that? I'm not sure.

Can you do a few more runs and see if that's a stable result.
Surprisingly large. Is CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL enabled? That should reduce the
tracepoint to just a nop.
yes. We do use jump label. I also verified that looking at .s

#APP
 # 23 "./arch/powerpc/include/asm/jump_label.h" 1
        1:
        nop
        .pushsection __jump_table,  "aw"
        .llong 1b, .L201, __tracepoint_hash_fault+8      #,
        .popsection

 # 0 "" 2
