This needs to be _the_ last thing that gets #included.  Otherwise, you
risk colliding with any other trace header that gets implicitly included
below.

Thanks for the suggestion, will move it to the last.

It would be _really_ nice to be able to see return values from the
various gup calls as well.  Is that feasible?

I think it should be feasible. kmem_cache_alloc trace event could show
return value. I'm supposed gup trace events should be able to do the
same thing.

Just did a quick test, it is definitely feasible. Please check the below test log:

trace-cmd-200 [000] 99.221486: gup_get_user_pages: start=8000000ff0 nr_pages=1 ret=1 trace-cmd-200 [000] 99.223215: gup_get_user_pages: start=8000000fdb nr_pages=1 ret=1 trace-cmd-200 [000] 99.223298: gup_get_user_pages: start=8000000ed0 nr_pages=1 ret=1

nr_pages is the number of pages requested by the gup, ret is the return value.

If nobody has objection, I will add it into V3.
