    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
     "New features:
    
       - Tom Zanussi's extended histogram work.
    
         This adds the synthetic events to have histograms from multiple
         event data Adds triggers "onmatch" and "onmax" to call the
         synthetic events Several updates to the histogram code from this
    
       - Allow way to nest ring buffer calls in the same context
    
       - Allow absolute time stamps in ring buffer
    
       - Rewrite of filter code parsing based on Al Viro's suggestions
    
       - Setting of trace_clock to global if TSC is unstable (on boot)
    
       - Better OOM handling when allocating large ring buffers
    
       - Added initcall tracepoints (consolidated initcall_debug code with
         them)
    
      And other various fixes and clean ups"
