Because there is a dependency on patch 01, I think it would be much less painful
to bring in the whole patchset through the tracing tree rather than each
targeted tree. Otherwise, we have to ensure that each tree has pulled the commit
from the tracing tree before pulling the patches that depend on it.

And it only really touches the include/trace/ header files, so it's not as if it
touched any specific subsystem code.

Thanks,

Mathieu
