In this case, we are putting CONFIG_IPV6 in TRACE_EVENT macro, which generates
warnings like:

./include/trace/events/tcp.h:274:1: error: directive in argument list
./include/trace/events/tcp.h:281:1: error: directive in argument list

Seems these warning cannot be easily avoided. This is also the same pattern we 
have been using in include/trace/events/tcp.h. 

Any suggestions on how shall we proceed from here?

Thanks,
Song
