tracing: Add basic event trigger framework

Add a 'trigger' file for each trace event, enabling 'trace event
triggers' to be set for trace events.

'trace event triggers' are patterned after the existing 'ftrace
function triggers' implementation except that triggers are written to
per-event 'trigger' files instead of to a single file such as the
'set_ftrace_filter' used for ftrace function triggers.

The implementation is meant to be entirely separate from ftrace
function triggers, in order to keep the respective implementations
relatively simple and to allow them to diverge.

The event trigger functionality is built on top of SOFT_DISABLE
functionality.  It adds a TRIGGER_MODE bit to the ftrace_event_file
flags which is checked when any trace event fires.  Triggers set for a
particular event need to be checked regardless of whether that event
is actually enabled or not - getting an event to fire even if it's not
enabled is what's already implemented by SOFT_DISABLE mode, so trigger
mode directly reuses that.  Event trigger essentially inherit the soft
disable logic in __ftrace_event_enable_disable() while adding a bit of
logic and trigger reference counting via tm_ref on top of that in a
new trace_event_trigger_enable_disable() function.  Because the base
__ftrace_event_enable_disable() code now needs to be invoked from
outside trace_events.c, a wrapper is also added for those usages.

The triggers for an event are actually invoked via a new function,
event_triggers_call(), and code is also added to invoke them for
ftrace_raw_event calls as well as syscall events.

The main part of the patch creates a new trace_events_trigger.c file
to contain the trace event triggers implementation.

The standard open, read, and release file operations are implemented
here.

The open() implementation sets up for the various open modes of the
'trigger' file.  It creates and attaches the trigger iterator and sets
up the command parser.  If opened for reading set up the trigger
seq_ops.

The read() implementation parses the event trigger written to the
'trigger' file, looks up the trigger command, and passes it along to
that event_command's func() implementation for command-specific
processing.

The release() implementation does whatever cleanup is needed to
release the 'trigger' file, like releasing the parser and trigger
iterator, etc.

A couple of functions for event command registration and
unregistration are added, along with a list to add them to and a mutex
to protect them, as well as an (initially empty) registration function
to add the set of commands that will be added by future commits, and
call to it from the trace event initialization code.

also added are a couple trigger-specific data structures needed for
these implementations such as a trigger iterator and a struct for
trigger-specific data.

A couple structs consisting mostly of function meant to be implemented
in command-specific ways, event_command and event_trigger_ops, are
used by the generic event trigger command implementations.  They're
being put into trace.h alongside the other trace_event data structures
and functions, in the expectation that they'll be needed in several
trace_event-related files such as trace_events_trigger.c and
trace_events.c.

The event_command.func() function is meant to be called by the trigger
parsing code in order to add a trigger instance to the corresponding
event.  It essentially coordinates adding a live trigger instance to
the event, and arming the triggering the event.

Every event_command func() implementation essentially does the
same thing for any command:

   - choose ops - use the value of param to choose either a number or
     count version of event_trigger_ops specific to the command
   - do the register or unregister of those ops
   - associate a filter, if specified, with the triggering event

The reg() and unreg() ops allow command-specific implementations for
event_trigger_op registration and unregistration, and the
get_trigger_ops() op allows command-specific event_trigger_ops
selection to be parameterized.  When a trigger instance is added, the
reg() op essentially adds that trigger to the triggering event and
arms it, while unreg() does the opposite.  The set_filter() function
is used to associate a filter with the trigger - if the command
doesn't specify a set_filter() implementation, the command will ignore
filters.

Each command has an associated trigger_type, which serves double duty,
both as a unique identifier for the command as well as a value that
can be used for setting a trigger mode bit during trigger invocation.

The signature of func() adds a pointer to the event_command struct,
used to invoke those functions, along with a command_data param that
can be passed to the reg/unreg functions.  This allows func()
implementations to use command-specific blobs and supports code
re-use.

The event_trigger_ops.func() command corrsponds to the trigger 'probe'
function that gets called when the triggering event is actually
invoked.  The other functions are used to list the trigger when
needed, along with a couple mundane book-keeping functions.

This also moves event_file_data() into trace.h so it can be used
outside of trace_events.c.

+/**
+ * struct event_command - callbacks and data members for event commands
+ *
+ * Event commands are invoked by users by writing the command name
+ * into the 'trigger' file associated with a trace event.  The
+ * parameters associated with a specific invocation of an event
+ * command are used to create an event trigger instance, which is
+ * added to the list of trigger instances associated with that trace
+ * event.  When the event is hit, the set of triggers associated with
+ * that event is invoked.
+ *
+ * The data members in this structure provide per-event command data
+ * for various event commands.
+ *
+ * All the data members below, except for @post_trigger, must be set
+ * for each event command.
+ *
+ * @name: The unique name that identifies the event command.  This is
+ *	the name used when setting triggers via trigger files.
+ *
+ * @trigger_type: A unique id that identifies the event command
+ *	'type'.  This value has two purposes, the first to ensure that
+ *	only one trigger of the same type can be set at a given time
+ *	for a particular event e.g. it doesn't make sense to have both
+ *	a traceon and traceoff trigger attached to a single event at
+ *	the same time, so traceon and traceoff have the same type
+ *	though they have different names.  The @trigger_type value is
+ *	also used as a bit value for deferring the actual trigger
+ *	action until after the current event is finished.  Some
+ *	commands need to do this if they themselves log to the trace
+ *	buffer (see the @post_trigger() member below).  @trigger_type
+ *	values are defined by adding new values to the trigger_type
+ *	enum in include/linux/ftrace_event.h.
+ *
+ * @post_trigger: A flag that says whether or not this command needs
+ *	to have its action delayed until after the current event has
+ *	been closed.  Some triggers need to avoid being invoked while
+ *	an event is currently in the process of being logged, since
+ *	the trigger may itself log data into the trace buffer.  Thus
+ *	we make sure the current event is committed before invoking
+ *	those triggers.  To do that, the trigger invocation is split
+ *	in two - the first part checks the filter using the current
+ *	trace record; if a command has the @post_trigger flag set, it
+ *	sets a bit for itself in the return value, otherwise it
+ *	directly invokes the trigger.  Once all commands have been
+ *	either invoked or set their return flag, the current record is
+ *	either committed or discarded.  At that point, if any commands
+ *	have deferred their triggers, those commands are finally
+ *	invoked following the close of the current event.  In other
+ *	words, if the event_trigger_ops @func() probe implementation
+ *	itself logs to the trace buffer, this flag should be set,
+ *	otherwise it can be left unspecified.
+ *
+ * All the methods below, except for @set_filter(), must be
+ * implemented.
+ *
+ * @func: The callback function responsible for parsing and
+ *	registering the trigger written to the 'trigger' file by the
+ *	user.  It allocates the trigger instance and registers it with
+ *	the appropriate trace event.  It makes use of the other
+ *	event_command callback functions to orchestrate this, and is
+ *	usually implemented by the generic utility function
+ *	@event_trigger_callback() (see trace_event_triggers.c).
+ *
+ * @reg: Adds the trigger to the list of triggers associated with the
+ *	event, and enables the event trigger itself, after
+ *	initializing it (via the event_trigger_ops @init() function).
+ *	This is also where commands can use the @trigger_type value to
+ *	make the decision as to whether or not multiple instances of
+ *	the trigger should be allowed.  This is usually implemented by
+ *	the generic utility function @register_trigger() (see
+ *	trace_event_triggers.c).
+ *
+ * @unreg: Removes the trigger from the list of triggers associated
+ *	with the event, and disables the event trigger itself, after
+ *	initializing it (via the event_trigger_ops @free() function).
+ *	This is usually implemented by the generic utility function
+ *	@unregister_trigger() (see trace_event_triggers.c).
+ *
+ * @set_filter: An optional function called to parse and set a filter
+ *	for the trigger.  If no @set_filter() method is set for the
+ *	event command, filters set by the user for the command will be
+ *	ignored.  This is usually implemented by the generic utility
+ *	function @set_trigger_filter() (see trace_event_triggers.c).
+ *
+ * @get_trigger_ops: The callback function invoked to retrieve the
+ *	event_trigger_ops implementation associated with the command.
