[PATCH v3 1/4] tracing/events: Add timer and high res timer tracepoints

[Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@cn.fujitsu.com>]

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>

Add tracepoints for timer and high res timer execution. We add entry and
exit tracepoints so we can calculate timer latency.

Example ftrace output:

<idle>-0     [000]   264.040506: hrtimer_entry: func=.tick_sched_timer
<idle>-0     [000]   264.040508: hrtimer_exit: func=.tick_sched_timer restart=HRTIMER_RESTART
<idle>-0     [000]   264.040530: timer_entry: func=.e1000_watchdog
<idle>-0     [000]   264.040728: timer_exit: func=.e1000_watchdog

Here we can see e1000_watchdog is taking 0.2ms - it might make sense to
move this into a workqueue or kernel thread.

Changelog v1->v2:
1: Rebase this patch against latest tip tree by Xiao Guangrong.
2: Move TRACE_SYSTEM out of #if
