[RFC PATCH 0/7] tracing: Use common error_log with probe events

From: Masami Hiramatsu

Hi Tom,

Here is a series of patches which applies common error_log framework to
probe events. While applying it, I found I missed to check some errors
in parser. Also, I made a testcase for this feature (only for kprobe
event side, please make your test for the hist errors too).
Thus I made this as a series which contains some bugfixes (a kind of
hardening), cleanups, and a test besides of the main patch.

Please feel free to pick this series to your series. I think some
bugfixes might be better to push Steve's urgent branch.
Let's talk with Steve.

Oh, note that this series can be applied on your v3 series, except
for [4/5] :)

Thank you,
