Re: [PATCH resend] tracing/events: convert NAPI's tracepoint via TRACE_EVENT

This patch can't be split up, so I'm wondering how you suggest to
handle this patch given that you have declared that define_trace.h
changes aren't to go through the subsystem tree?

If we do the define_trace.h change only, we break the build
(lack of macro defined for the trace).

If we do only the other parts of his patch, we get a duplicate
definition.


This patch cooperate with my previous patch to solve the include file
dependencies problem. So, we do better put those two patches together.
(both in -tip tree or/add both in network tree)

The previous patch is below:

tracing/events: fix the include file dependencies

And keep in mind that Neil and Xiao are probably going to want to do
work on top of this to the networking bits. Thus if we put this patch
here into the tracing tree, I'll have to develop a dependency on the
tracing tree and I think that will go over like a fart in a spacesuit
with the -next crowd and Stephen Rothwell in particular.


Thank you, David
