Hi Mauro,

Thanks for cleaning it up! Tentatively moving kprobes.txt under
staging/ is good to me.

Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

BTW, I think kprobes.txt is under trace/ or we may be better
making a new core-api/events/ directory and prepare other event
systems (PMU, uprobes, and hw_breakpoint.)

Thank you,
