Thanks, I'll take a look. There is no mention in Documentation/ or
samples/ of DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() or DEFINE_EVENT(), nor any mention
of the cost of TRACE_EVENT().

Looking at the new power tracing code, I will also rework these events
to be more similar to the existing ones.

I suggest skipping this patch for 3.5, and I'll post an updated one for 3.6.
