I noticed when trying to use the trace-cmd python interface that reading the raw buffer wasn't working for kernel_stack events. This is because it uses a stubbed version of __dynamic_array that doesn't do the __data_loc trick and encode the length of the array into the field. Instead it just shows up as a size of 0. So change this to __array and set the len to FTRACE_STACK_ENTRIES since this is what we actually do in practice and matches how user_stack_trace works.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
