Steven Rostedt 2239291aeb tracing: Remove per event trace registering
This patch removes the register functions of TRACE_EVENT() to enable
and disable tracepoints. The registering of a event is now down
directly in the trace_events.c file. The tracepoint_probe_register()
is now called directly.

The prototypes are no longer type checked, but this should not be
an issue since the tracepoints are created automatically by the
macros. If a prototype is incorrect in the TRACE_EVENT() macro, then
other macros will catch it.

The trace_event_class structure now holds the probes to be called
by the callbacks. This removes needing to have each event have
a separate pointer for the probe.

To handle kprobes and syscalls, since they register probes in a
different manner, a "reg" field is added to the ftrace_event_class
structure. If the "reg" field is assigned, then it will be called for
enabling and disabling of the probe for either ftrace or perf. To let
the reg function know what is happening, a new enum (trace_reg) is
created that has the type of control that is needed.

With this new rework, the 82 kernel events and 618 syscall events
has their footprint dramatically lowered:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
4913961	1088356	 861512	6863829	 68bbd5	vmlinux.orig
4914025	1088868	 861512	6864405	 68be15	vmlinux.class
4918492	1084612	 861512	6864616	 68bee8	vmlinux.tracepoint
4900252	1057412	 861512	6819176	 680d68	vmlinux.regs

The size went from 6863829 to 6819176, that's a total of 44K
in savings. With tracepoints being continuously added, this is
critical that the footprint becomes minimal.

v5: Added #ifdef CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS around a reference to perf
    specific structure in trace_events.c.

v4: Fixed trace self tests to check probe because regfunc no longer
    exists.

v3: Updated to handle void *data in beginning of probe parameters.
    Also added the tracepoint: check_trace_callback_type_##call().

v2: Changed the callback probes to pass void * and typecast the
    value within the function.
