The tracepoints need to use the magic print_flags & co helpers so that
output works properly if using the binary tracebuffer and user space tools that
decoded it (e.g. trace-cmd or perf), so using a kernel function for decoding is
not an option.

But we can make these tracepoints dependent on CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS to
still allow building lighter kernels if we really care about it.
