[PATCH] tracing WIP patches

[Jeremy Fitzhardinge]

Hi,

Here's the patches I have against the tip/tracing/core.  They
consist of:

- Move __DO_TRACE out of line, so that the inline code is just an
  if() and a call.  This reduces linux/tracepoint.h's include dependencies
  to just <linux/types.h>, which means its safe to include in any context
  at all.

- Remove the use of the global CREATE_TRACE_POINTS, and institute
  a set of CREATE_subsys_TRACE_POINTS variables to cause targeted
  instantiation of the tracepoint code and data.  Without this
  we end up in the situation where one
	#define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS
	#include <trace/events/foo.h>
  instantiates not only foo's events but also bar's, if foo.h ends
  up directly or indirectly including trace/events/bar.h
  Unfortunately it increases the amount of boilerplace in each
  events definition header by a bit.

- A followup, ot make out-lining __do_trace_##name work for
  direct users of DECLARE_TRACE/DEFINE_TRACE, as DEFINE_TRACE now needs
  a full arg and proto list.  This results if fairly ugly wholesale
  duplication of each tracepoint's arg lists.  This can be avoided if
  we migrate those users to use TRACE_EVENT(), etc.

I'll post my pvops patches for comment in a moment.  Unfortunately, even
with all this, I can't get the kernel to link due to duplicate kmem.h
events...
