Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Runtime verification infrastructure This is the biggest change here. It introduces the runtime verification that is necessary for running Linux on safety critical systems. It allows for deterministic automata models to be inserted into the kernel that will attach to tracepoints, where the information on these tracepoints will move the model from state to state. If a state is encountered that does not belong to the model, it will then activate a given reactor, that could just inform the user or even panic the kernel (for which safety critical systems will detect and can recover from). - Two monitor models are also added: Wakeup In Preemptive (WIP - not to be confused with "work in progress"), and Wakeup While Not Running (WWNR). - Added __vstring() helper to the TRACE_EVENT() macro to replace several vsnprintf() usages that w...
