Add kprobes based event tracer on ftrace.
This tracer is similar to the events tracer which is based on Tracepoint
infrastructure. Instead of Tracepoint, this tracer is based on kprobes(kprobe
and kretprobe). It probes anywhere where kprobes can probe(this means, all
functions body except for __kprobes functions).
changes from v3:
- warn if the probe address is not an instruction boundary.

+kprobe-based event tracer
+---------------------------
+
+This tracer is similar to the events tracer which is based on Tracepoint
+infrastructure. Instead of Tracepoint, this tracer is based on kprobes(kprobe
+and kretprobe). It probes anywhere where kprobes can probe(this means, all
+functions body except for __kprobes functions).
+
+Unlike the function tracer, this tracer can probe instructions inside of
+kernel functions. It allows you to check which instruction has been executed.
+
+Unlike the Tracepoint based events tracer, this tracer can add new probe points
+on the fly.
+
+Similar to the events tracer, this tracer doesn't need to be activated via
+current_tracer, instead of that, just set probe points via
+/debug/tracing/kprobe_probes.
+
+Synopsis of kprobe_probes:
+ p SYMBOL[+offs|-offs]|MEMADDR : set a probe
+ r SYMBOL[+0] : set a return probe
+
+E.g.
+ echo p sys_open > /debug/tracing/kprobe_probes
+
+ This sets a kprobe on the top of sys_open() function.
+
+ echo r sys_open >> /debug/tracing/kprobe_probes
+
+ This sets a kretprobe on the return point of sys_open() function.
+
+ echo > /debug/tracing/kprobe_probes
+
+ This clears all probe points. and you can see the traced information via
+/debug/tracing/trace.
+
+ cat /debug/tracing/trace
+# tracer: nop
+#
+# TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION

+ <...>-5117 [003] 416.481905: sysenter_do_call: <-sys_open+0
+
+ @SYMBOL means that kernel hits a probe, and <-SYMBOL means kernel returns
+from SYMBOL(e.g. "sysenter_do_call: <-sys_open+0" means kernel returns from
+sys_open to sysenter_do_call).
