[PATCH 4/5] tracing: Allow syscall trace events for non privileged users

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Wed Nov 17 2010 - 20:33:57 EST


As for the raw syscalls events, individual syscall events won't
leak system wide information on task bound tracing. Allow non
privileged users to use them in such workflow.
