Since it is only the one real tracepoint, how do we know which avg is
which?

Good question. I missed that to be honest since we are mainly interested in cfs
and I was focused into not adding too many tracepoints..

I'm happy to create a tracepoint per class assuming that's what you're
suggesting.

IMHO, you should also consider irq (rq->avg_irq), so when people are tracing asystem with 'IRQ' or 'paravirtual steal' time accounting, they will get the full picture.
