+ * Example :
+ *
+ * MARK(subsystem_event, "%d %s %p[struct task_struct]",
+ * someint, somestring, current);
+ * Where :
+ * - Subsystem is the name of your subsystem.
+ * - event is the name of the event to mark.
+ * - "%d %s %p[struct task_struct]" is the formatted string for printk.
+ * - someint is an integer.
+ * - somestring is a char pointer.
+ * - current is a pointer to a struct task_struct.
+ *
+ * - Dynamically overridable function call based on marker mechanism
+ * from Frank Ch. Eigler <fche@xxxxxxxxxx>.
+ * - Thanks to Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xxxxxxxx> for his constructive
+ * criticism about gcc optimization related issues.
+ *
+ * The marker mechanism supports multiple instances of the same marker.
+ * Markers can be put in inline functions, inlined static functions and
+ * unrolled loops.
+ *
+ * Note : It is safe to put markers within preempt-safe code : preempt_enable()
+ * will not call the scheduler due to the tests in preempt_schedule().
