tracing/events: add support for modules to TRACE_EVENT

Impact: allow modules to add TRACE_EVENTS on load

This patch adds the final hooks to allow modules to use the TRACE_EVENT
macro. A notifier and a data structure are used to link the TRACE_EVENTs
defined in the module to connect them with the ftrace event tracing system.

It also adds the necessary automated clean ups to the trace events when a
module is removed.
