[PATCH v3 2/2] tracing: Shrink the size of struct ftrace_event_field

[Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>]

Use bit fields, and the size of struct ftrace_event_field can be
shrunk from 48 bytes to 40 bytes on 64bit kernel.

slab_name active_obj nr_obj size obj_per_slab
---------------------------------------------
ftrace_event_field   1105   1105     48   85  (before)
ftrace_event_field   1224   1224     40  102  (after)

This saves a few Kbytes: (1224 * 40) - (1105 * 48) = 4080

v2:
- use !!is_signed, and nuke the check on this field.
- use a different way to detect overflow.
(both suggested by Steven)

v3:
- use plain WARN_ON() instead of a macro. (suggeusted by Borislav)
