From: "Mike Rapoport (IBM)" <rppt@kernel.org> Dynamic ftrace must allocate memory for code and this was impossible without CONFIG_MODULES. With execmem separated from the modules code, execmem_text_alloc() is available regardless of CONFIG_MODULES. Remove dependency of dynamic ftrace on CONFIG_MODULES and make CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE select CONFIG_EXECMEM in Kconfig.
