Nice.

Just two worries about it.

The ring buffer are flushed on module unloading right?
That won't make it easy to perform module event tracing.

Also the events selftests do a lot of random things to trigger
each kind of events, I guess some new others will be needed to
tests these, unless they will seem to fail on every selftests.
Although I can't imagine a module loading/unloading for
every ftrace event selftest... I guess these will require
a specific treatement and also will need to be selftested once
the filesystem is set to be able to load modules.

Thanks,
Frederic.
