[PATCH] softirq,tracing: enable to trace softirq raise latency

From: Lai Jiangshan
Date: Thu Nov 05 2009 - 02:55:48 EST



Add a tracepoint for tracing when softirq action is raised.

It and the existed tracepoints complete softirq's tracepoints:
softirq_raise, softirq_entry and softirq_exit.

And when this tracepoint is used in combination with
the softirq_entry tracepoint we can determine
the softirq raise latency.
