[for-next][PATCH 14/18] tracing: Add a trace remote module for testing

[Steven Rostedt <rostedt@kernel.org>]

From: Vincent Donnefort <vdonnefort@google.com>

Add a module to help testing the tracefs support for trace remotes. This
module:

  * Use simple_ring_buffer to write into a ring-buffer.
  * Declare a single "selftest" event that can be triggered from
    user-space.
  * Register a "test" trace remote.

This is intended to be used by trace remote selftests.
