Thanks and sorry. Andrew can you please include it in mmotm as -fix for now?
I plan to respin the whole of this later with some patch splitting and
reordering to reduce churn and follow Rasmus' advice.

Also I've just learned that there's a new lightweight tracepoint-defs.h in -tip
thanks to Andi, which would be a better place for struct trace_print_flags than
tracepoint.h is, so I'll look into using it for the respin, which should make
this temporary -fix redundant.

Note that the linux-next commit id is volatile here (regenerated from quilt series).
