tracepoints: add DECLARE_TRACE() and DEFINE_TRACE()
Impact: API *CHANGE*. Must update all tracepoint users.
Add DEFINE_TRACE() to tracepoints to let them declare the tracepoint
structure in a single spot for all the kernel. It helps reducing memory
consumption, especially when declaring a lot of tracepoints, e.g. for
kmalloc tracing.
*API CHANGE WARNING*: now, DECLARE_TRACE() must be used in headers for
tracepoint declarations rather than DEFINE_TRACE(). This is the sane way
to do it. The name previously used was misleading.
Updates scheduler instrumentation to follow this API change.
