Hi Frederic and Jason,

Both of you added a parameter to ftrace_event_call for passing
sycall name (call->data) to handlers, but one passes 'ftrace_event_call *'
and another passes 'void *'. It seems not enough unified.

And also, I'm now updating my patch for 'dynamic ftrace_event_call'
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/24/234
which adds 'ftrace_event_call *' for all handlers.

I think passing 'ftrace_event_call *' is more generic way
to do that. What would you think about that?

Thank you,
