Impact: make trace_event more convenient for tracers
All tracers (for the moment) that use the struct trace_event want to
have the context info printed before their own output: the pid/cmdline,
cpu, and timestamp.
But some other tracers that want to implement their trace_event
callbacks will not necessary need these information or they may want to
format them as they want.
This patch adds a new default-enabled trace option:
TRACE_ITER_CONTEXT_INFO When disabled through:
echo nocontext-info > /debugfs/tracing/trace_options
The pid, cpu and timestamps headers will not be printed.
IE with the sched_switch tracer with context-info (default):
bash-2935 [001] 100.356561: 2935:120:S ==> [001] 0:140:R <idle>
<idle>-0 [000] 100.412804: 0:140:R + [000] 11:115:S events/0
<idle>-0 [000] 100.412816: 0:140:R ==> [000] 11:115:R events/0
events/0-11 [000] 100.412829: 11:115:S ==> [000] 0:140:R <idle>
Without context-info:
2935:120:S ==> [001] 0:140:R <idle>
0:140:R + [000] 11:115:S events/0
0:140:R ==> [000] 11:115:R events/0
11:115:S ==> [000] 0:140:R <idle>
A tracer can disable it at runtime by clearing the bit
TRACE_ITER_CONTEXT_INFO in trace_flags.
The print routines were renamed to trace_print_context and
trace_print_lat_context, so that they can be used by tracers if they
want to use them for one of the trace_event callbacks.

After adding the printf format checking for trace_seq_printf, several
warnings now show up. This patch cleans them up.

Impact: fix bug for handling partial line
trace_seq_printf(), seq_print_userip_objs(), ... return
0 -- partial line was written
other(>0) -- success
duplicate output is also removed in trace_print_raw().

Impact: rework trace.c to use new event register API
Almost every ftrace event has to implement its output display in
trace.c through a different function. Some events did not handle
all the formats (trace, latency-trace, raw, hex, binary), and
this method does not scale well.
This patch converts the format functions to use the event API to
find the event and and print its format. Currently, we have
a print function for trace, latency_trace, raw, hex and binary.
A trace_nop_print is available if the event wants to avoid output
on a particular format.
Perhaps other tracers could use this in the future (like mmiotrace and
function_graph).

Impact: simplify/generalize/refactor trace.c
The trace.c file is becoming more difficult to maintain due to the
growing number of events. There is several formats that an event may
be printed. This patch sets up the infrastructure of an event hash to
allow for events to register how they should be printed.
