[PATCH v3 14/17] tracing: Add kho serialization of trace events

[Alexander Graf <graf@amazon.com>]

Events and thus their parsing handle in ftrace have dynamic IDs that get
assigned whenever the event is added to the system. If we want to parse
trace events after kexec, we need to link event IDs back to the original
trace event that existed before we kexec'ed.

There are broadly 2 paths we could take for that:

  1) Save full event description across KHO, restore after kexec,
     merge identical trace events into a single identifier.
  2) Recover the ID of post-kexec added events so they get the same
     ID after kexec that they had before kexec

This patch implements the second option. It's simpler and thus less
intrusive. However, it means we can not fully parse affected events
when the kernel removes or modifies trace events across a kho kexec.

v1 -> v2:

  - Leave anything that requires a name in trace.c to keep buffers
    unnamed entities
  - Put events as array into a property, use fingerprint instead of
    names to identify them
  - Reduce footprint without CONFIG_FTRACE_KHO

v2 -> v3:

  - s/"global_trace"/"global-trace"/
