tracing, perf: Convert the power tracer into an event tracer

This patch converts the existing power tracer into an event tracer,
so that power events (C states and frequency changes) can be
tracked via "perf".

This also removes the perl script that was used to demo the tracer;
its functionality is being replaced entirely with timechart.

tracing: Add kprobe-based event tracer

Add kprobes-based event tracer on ftrace.

This tracer is similar to the events tracer which is based on Tracepoint
infrastructure. Instead of Tracepoint, this tracer is based on kprobes
(kprobe and kretprobe). It probes anywhere where kprobes can probe(this
means, all functions body except for __kprobes functions).

Similar to the events tracer, this tracer doesn't need to be activated
via current_tracer, instead of that, just set probe points via
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events. And you can set filters on each
probe events via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kprobes/<EVENT>/filter.

This tracer supports following probe arguments for each probe.

%REG : Fetch register REG
sN : Fetch Nth entry of stack (N >= 0)
sa : Fetch stack address.
@ADDR : Fetch memory at ADDR (ADDR should be in kernel)
@SYM[+|-offs] : Fetch memory at SYM +|- offs (SYM should be a data symbol)
aN : Fetch function argument. (N >= 0)
rv : Fetch return value.
ra : Fetch return address.
+|-offs(FETCHARG) : fetch memory at FETCHARG +|- offs address.

See Documentation/trace/kprobetrace.txt in the next patch for details.

Changes from v13:
- Support 'sa' for stack address.
- Use call->data instead of container_of() macro.

net: Temporarily backout SKB sources tracer.

Steven Rostedt has suggested that Neil work with the tracing
folks, trying to use TRACE_EVENT as the mechanism for
implementation. And if that doesn't workout we can investigate
other solutions such as that one which was tried here.
