    tracing: move trace point formats to files in include/trace directory · eb594e45

    Impact: clean up
    
    To further facilitate the ease of adding trace points for developers, this
    patch creates include/trace/trace_events.h and
    include/trace/trace_event_types.h.
    
    The former file will hold the trace/<type>.h files and the latter will hold
    the trace/<type>_event_types.h files.
    
    To create new tracepoints and to have them automatically
    appear in the event tracer, a developer makes the trace/<type>.h file
    which includes <linux/tracepoint.h> and the trace/<type>_event_types.h file.
    
    The trace/<type>_event_types.h file will hold the TRACE_FORMAT
    macros.
    
    Then add the trace/<type>.h file to trace/trace_events.h,
    and add the trace/<type>_event_types.h to the trace_event_types.h file.
    
    No need to modify files elsewhere.
