No, libtraceevent lives outside the kernel tree.

Make a patch against: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtraceevent.git

Follow the same procedure as you would for submitting to the linux kernel,
but instead of sending it to LKML, send it to: linux-trace-devel@vger.kernel.org

You don't even need to Cc me. I'll get it from that mailing list.

Patchwork is here: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-trace-devel/list/
