[RFC][PATCH 5/5] tracefs: Add directory /sys/kernel/tracing

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Wed Jan 21 2015 - 12:21:24 EST


From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

When tracefs is configured, have the directory /sys/kernel/tracing appear
just like /sys/kernel/debug appears when debugfs is configured.

This will give a consistent place for system admins to mount tracefs.
