[Patch] mm tracepoints update

From: Larry Woodman
Date: Tue Apr 21 2009 - 18:45:42 EST



I've cleaned up the mm tracepoints to track page allocation and
freeing, various types of pagefaults and unmaps, and critical page
reclamation routines. This is useful for debugging memory allocation
issues and system performance problems under heavy memory loads.
