[GIT PULL] tracing/kprobes: Kprobes core/tracing/profiling updates

[Frederic Weisbecker]

Hi Ingo,

Kprobes has been nicely improved lately.
The x86 instruction decoder has been fixed to support cross builds and
mmx instruction set, besides of a lot of various kprobes core fixes.

The tracing part has evolved too, we can define human names for
arguments and custom subsystem names for dynamic tracepoints.

And also kprobes profiling and raw dynamic tracepoint samples are now
supported through perf. Looks like most of the kernel parts are now
in place for a perf support. Things are going to be focused on a
perf kprobes tool to exploit that.

Concerning this git tree, based on tip:/tracing/kprobes, I had to merge
tracing/core inside few weeks ago because it needed build fixes that were
in tracing/core (the merge commit provides the details). The tree is self
contained but it's already async with recent upstream tracing updates.
It means that merging upstream tree or tracing/core inside may result in
non-trivial conflicts. I can handle them, or rebase the whole, as you prefer.

The tree can be found at:

	tracing/kprobes

Thanks,
Frederic.

The diffstat looks erroneous. I got it by taking
tip:tracing/kprobes...HEAD  but excluding the tracing/core changes
after the merge commit: ^d28daf923ac5e4a0d7cecebae56f3e339189366b.
And it seems it has taken the diffstat from the beginning of kprobes
tracing development. Anyway, here it is:
