[PATCH 08/16] tracing: have event_trace_printk use static tracer

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Thu Mar 12 2009 - 22:42:37 EST


From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@xxxxxxxxxx>

Impact: speed up on event tracing

The event_trace_printk is currently a wrapper function that calls
trace_vprintk. Because it uses a variable for the fmt it misses out
on the optimization of using the binary printk.

This patch makes event_trace_printk into a macro wrapper to use the
fmt as the same as the trace_printks.
