Linus Torvalds 95f1fa9e34 New tracing features:
- PERAMAENT flag to ftrace_ops when attaching a callback to a function
    As /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled when set to zero will disable all
    attached callbacks in ftrace, this has a detrimental impact on live
    kernel tracing, as it disables all that it patched. If a ftrace_ops
    is registered to ftrace with the PERMANENT flag set, it will prevent
    ftrace_enabled from being disabled, and if ftrace_enabled is already
    disabled, it will prevent a ftrace_ops with PREMANENT flag set from
    being registered.
 
  - New register_ftrace_direct(). As eBPF would like to register its own
    trampolines to be called by the ftrace nop locations directly,
    without going through the ftrace trampoline, this function has been
    added. This allows for eBPF trampolines to live along side of
    ftrace, perf, kprobe and live patching. It also utilizes the ftrace
    enabled_functions file that keeps track of functions that have been
    modified in the kernel, to allow for security auditing.
 
  - Allow for kernel internal use of ftrace instances. Subsystems in
    the kernel can now create and destroy their own tracing instances
    which allows them to have their own tracing buffer, and be able
    to record events without worrying about other users from writing over
    their data.
 
  - New seq_buf_hex_dump() that lets users use the hex_dump() in their
    seq_buf usage.
 
  - Notifications now added to tracing_max_latency to allow user space
    to know when a new max latency is hit by one of the latency tracers.
 
  - Wider spread use of generic compare operations for use of bsearch and
    friends.
 
  - More synthetic event fields may be defined (32 up from 16)
 
  - Use of xarray for architectures with sparse system calls, for the
    system call trace events.
 
 This along with small clean ups and fixes.
