I really don't want to bikeshed, especially as some tracepoints are
better than no tracepoints, but...
We now trace fctl/schid/ret_code unconditionally (good).
We trace the outcome of cp_prefetch() and fsm_io_helper()
unconditionally. We don't, however, trace all things that may go wrong.
We have the tracepoint at the end, but it cannot tell us where the
error came from. Should we have tracepoints in every place (in this
function) that may generate an error? Only if there is an actual error?
Are the two enough for common debug scenarios?
Opinions? We can just go ahead with this and improve things later on, I
guess.
