Linus Torvalds b72b5fecc1 tracing updates for 6.3:
- Add function names as a way to filter function addresses
 
 - Add sample module to test ftrace ops and dynamic trampolines
 
 - Allow stack traces to be passed from beginning event to end event for
   synthetic events. This will allow seeing the stack trace of when a task is
   scheduled out and recorded when it gets scheduled back in.
 
 - Add trace event helper __get_buf() to use as a temporary buffer when printing
   out trace event output.
 
 - Add kernel command line to create trace instances on boot up.
 
 - Add enabling of events to instances created at boot up.
 
 - Add trace_array_puts() to write into instances.
 
 - Allow boot instances to take a snapshot at the end of boot up.
 
 - Allow live patch modules to include trace events
 
 - Minor fixes and clean ups
