Perhaps we can do something like below?

Then we can

1. kill __perf_addr(), __perf_count(), __perf_task() and
TP_perf_assign()

2. Add the fast path check

if (builtin_constant(__task) && !__task &&
hlist_empty(head)))
return;

into perf_trace_call() right after ftrace_get_offsets_call().

Doesn't look very nice, it relies on the fact that
ftrace_get_offsets_call(args) evaluates TP_perf_arg()'s hidden in
TP_ARGS().

OTOH, the whole point of include/trace/ is to create the code which
nobody except the maintainers can understand. At least I certainly
can't ;) So perhaps this is fine.

Oleg.
