Yes, I was thinking about having a "tracefs_kretprobe_raw()" as well.

I also thought of adding a flag in the parameter, but thought that a
separate function would be better instead.

I wanted to play with this interface before creating the retprobe one.
If you are happy with the current design, I can add that too.
