Yeah, that was typed manually, forgot "tracing". I mount the debugfs
system at /debug for easier typing. I hate the /sys/kernel/debug path.
Too much typing.

For it to work with trace-cmd (and perf) you'll need to add a plugin to
define what those enums are. This is the file that trace-cmd uses to
foramat. But it has no idea how to convert something like
THERMAL_TRIP_PASSIVE into a number.
