Hm.  I suppose that inner loop could be replaced by:

		find "$FTRACE_DIR/events/ -type d -name "$arg" -printf '%P\n' | \
			tr '/' ':' >> "$FTRACE_DIR/set_event"

and then we don't need all this cd'ing insanity.  I'll try that and
report back.

Oops, this was leftover from before I ported the xfs_errortag.h changes
to xfsprogs.

-c is a deliberately undocumented option to the bmap command; it's been
there since the introduction of reflink.
