c8961ec6da tracing_bprintk: Don't increment @pos in t_start()
It's wrong to increment @pos in t_start(), otherwise we'll lose
some entries when reading printk_formats, if the output is larger
than PAGE_SIZE.

5452af664f tracing/ftrace: factorize the tracing files creation
Impact: cleanup

Most of the tracing files creation follow the same pattern:

ret = debugfs_create_file(...)
if (!ret)
	pr_warning("Couldn't create ... entry\n")

Unify it!

40ce74f19c tracing: remove recording function depth from trace_printk
The function depth in trace_printk was to facilitate the function
graph output. Now that the function graph calculates the depth within
the trace output, we no longer need to record the depth when the
trace_printk is called.

7975a2be16 tracing: export trace formats to user space
The binary printk saves a pointer to the format string in the ring buffer.
On output, the format is processed. But if the user is reading the
ring buffer through a binary interface, the pointer is meaningless.

This patch creates a file called printk_formats that maps the pointers
to the formats.

 # cat /debug/tracing/printk_formats
0xffffffff80713d40 : "irq_handler_entry: irq=%d handler=%s\n"
0xffffffff80713d48 : "lock_acquire: %s%s%s\n"
0xffffffff80713d50 : "lock_release: %s\n"

48ead02030 tracing/core: bring back raw trace_printk for dynamic formats strings
Impact: fix callsites with dynamic format strings

Since its new binary implementation, trace_printk() internally uses static
containers for the format strings on each callsites. But the value is
assigned once at build time, which means that it can't take dynamic
formats.

So this patch unearthes the raw trace_printk implementation for the callers
that will need trace_printk to be able to carry these dynamic format
strings. The trace_printk() macro will use the appropriate implementation
for each callsite. Most of the time however, the binary implementation will
still be used.

The other impact of this patch is that mmiotrace_printk() will use the old
implementation because it calls the low level trace_vprintk and we can't
guess here whether the format passed in it is dynamic or not.

Some parts of this patch have been written by Steven Rostedt (most notably
the part that chooses the appropriate implementation for each callsites).

769b0441f4 tracing/core: drop the old trace_printk() implementation in favour of trace_bprintk()
Impact: faster and lighter tracing

Now that we have trace_bprintk() which is faster and consume lesser
memory than trace_printk() and has the same purpose, we can now drop
the old implementation in favour of the binary one from trace_bprintk(),
which means we move all the implementation of trace_bprintk() to
trace_printk(), so the Api doesn't change except that we must now use
trace_seq_bprintk() to print the TRACE_PRINT entries.

Some changes result of this:

- Previously, trace_bprintk depended of a single tracer and couldn't
  work without. This tracer has been dropped and the whole implementation
  of trace_printk() (like the module formats management) is now integrated
  in the tracing core (comes with CONFIG_TRACING), though we keep the file
  trace_printk (previously trace_bprintk.c) where we can find the module
  management. Thus we don't overflow trace.c

- changes some parts to use trace_seq_bprintk() to print TRACE_PRINT entries.

- change a bit trace_printk/trace_vprintk macros to support non-builtin formats
  constants, and fix 'const' qualifiers warnings. But this is all transparent for
  developers.

- etc...

V2:

- Rebase against last changes
- Fix mispell on the changelog

V3:

- Rebase against last changes (moving trace_printk() to kernel.h)
