From: Steven Rostedt The commit: 9f987b3141f086de27832514aad9f50a53f754 tracing: Include module.h in define_trace.h only solved half the problem. If the trace/events/module.h header is included at the time of define_trace.h (or in ftrace.h within it), the module.h TRACE_SYSTEM will override the current TRACE_SYSTEM macro. Since define_trace.h is included when CREATE_TRACE_POINTS is set, and the first thing it does is to #undef CREATE_TRACE_POINTS, by placing the module.h TRACE_SYSTEM inside a #ifdef CREATE_TRACE_POINTS we can prevent it from overriding the TRACE_SYSTEM that is being processed, and still process the module.h tracepoints when the module code defines CREATE_TRACE_POINTS and includes the trace/events/module.h header. As with commit 9f987b3141, this is only an issue if module.h is not included before the trace/events/.h file is included, which (luckily) has not happened yet.
