As you mentioned, the above hunk does not change the ftrace behavior.

The first diff directly affects the first condition check in print_graph_irq
function in kernel/trace/trace_functions_graph.c. The code snippet is as follows.

if (addr < (unsigned long)__irqentry_text_start ||
	addr >= (unsigned long)__irqentry_text_end)
	return;

I hope it would be helpful.
