The kernel part is trivial.
Most of the code is going to be in tools/lib/traceevent/event-parse.c.

I wasn't sure whether to
1) define new 'enum print_arg_type' for our function and do exactly what
   other __print* did
2) extend existing PRINT_FUNC with variable arguments and register it as
   a "global" event handler

as (2) makes more sense to me, but we already had it when some __print*
was implemented ... (and I didn't want to dig too deep into the project)
