[PATCH 4/5] trace/osnoise: Support a list of trace_array *tr

From: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira
Date: Thu Aug 12 2021 - 10:44:57 EST


osnoise/timerlat were built to run a single instance, and for this,
a single variable is enough to store the current struct trace_array
*tr with information about the tracing instance. This is done via
the *osnoise_trace variable. A trace_array represents a trace instance.

In preparation to support multiple instances, replace the
*osnoise_trace variable with an RCU protected list of instances.

The operations that refer to an instance now propagate to all
elements of the list (all instances).

Also, replace the osnoise_busy variable with a check if the list
has elements (busy).

No functional change is expected with this patch, i.e., only one
instance is allowed yet.
