[PATCH] kthread: Add kthread_work tracepoints

From: Rob Clark
Date: Sat Oct 10 2020 - 19:13:16 EST


From: Rob Clark <robdclark@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

While migrating some code from wq to kthread_worker, I found that I
missed the execute_start/end tracepoints. So add similar tracepoints
for kthread_work. And for completeness, queue_work tracepoint (although
this one differs slightly from the matching workqueue tracepoint).
