hi,

i'd also like to get some agreement that future tracepoints need to
have this sort of documentation included when they are submitted. Also,
I'd like people who have already submitted tracepoints to go back and
add this kind of documentation. I'll volunteer to police the effort if
we agree it should be done.

thanks,
