The files in Documentation/core-api/ are by virtue of their top-level
directory part of the Documentation section in MAINTAINERS. Each file in
Documentation/core-api/ should however also have a further section in
MAINTAINERS it belongs to, which fits to the technical area of the
documented API in that file.
The tracepoint.rst provides some explanation to tracepoints defined in
selected files under include/trace/events/, which itself is part of the
TRACING section.
So, add this core-api document to TRACING.

Synthetic events currently do not have a function to register perf events.
This leads to calling the tracepoint register functions with a NULL
function pointer which triggers:

Instead, have the code return -ENODEV, which doesn't warn and has perf
error out with:

Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 19 (No such device) for event (synthetic:futex_wait).
"dmesg | grep -i perf" may provide additional information.
Ideally perf should support synthetic events, but for now just fix the
warning. The support can come later.

whilst tearing down an ftrace instance. TRACE_FLAGS_MAX_SIZE is now 64bit,
so the mask comparison expression must be typecast to a u64 value to
avoid an overflow. AFAICT, ZEROED_TRACE_FLAGS is already cast to ULL
so this is ok.

The address from ftrace_find_rec_direct() is printed directly in t_show().
This can mislead symbol offsets if it has the "jmp" bit in the last bit.
Fix this by printing the address that returned by ftrace_jmp_get().
