I'm guessing tlp_header_valid is just a boolean. It's after severity
which is just one byte long. Why not make this one byte as well,
otherwise you are wasting 3 bytes.

Thanks Steven. Yes boolean is fine.

Should this assignment be dependent on whether or not tlp_header_valid
is true? Could tlp be pointing to some random memory if it isn't? What
about:

Good catch! will do so.

__entry->buf[1] = tlp->dw1;
__entry->buf[2] = tlp->dw2;

Note, "sizeof" will be shown in the format file that perf and trace-cmd
read to parse this event. They currently do not know how to parse that
(although I could add that in the future).

Since sizeof(unsigned int) is always 4 in Linux, just use 4.

Yes, I will make the aboves changes and send out V2 patch. Thank you for your time and comments.
