[PATCH 1/6] tracing: Convert trace_printk() formats for module to const char *

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Wed Apr 20 2011 - 12:01:26 EST


From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@xxxxxxxxxx>

The trace_printk() formats for modules do not show up in the
debugfs/tracing/printk_formats file. Only the formats that are
for trace_printk()s that are in the kernel core.

To facilitate the change to add trace_printk() formats from modules
into that file as well, we need to convert the structure that
holds the formats from char fmt[], into const char *fmt,
and allocate them separately.
