An include file for headers that are only in the include/trace/event
directory is fine to be in include/trace. That is, if you have a macro
used by multiple include/trace/events/*.h files, just put it in
include/trace. I don't even think it needs to be in the events part.
Oh, and I'm fine if it is used by TRACE_EVENT files that are in other
locations like fs/nfs/nfstrace.h.
For adding a helper include/trace/fs.h file used by files in
include/trace/events/ and other trace headers...
