thanks guys!

Steve's latest trace-ringbuffer code against -tip complicates life a 
little bit.

We dont yet know whether tip/tracing/ring-buffer is ready for wider 
consumption, so it's in a separate feature branch. These four patches 
conflict with the ring-buffer code quite widely.

So ... i did an optimistic merge approach: i merged these 4 patches 
ontop of the new tip/tracing/ring-buffer code, and have put it into a 
new tip/tracing/pipe branch:

 # f19d495: tracing/ftrace: adapt the boot tracer to the new print_line type
 # 92261f6: tracing/ftrace: adapt mmiotrace to the new type of print_line
 # 157190e: tracing/ftrace: fix pipe breaking
 # 92e359a: tracing/ftrace: change the type of the print_line callback

i'm merging this into tip/master for a bit of testing, but if it breaks 
something (or if i havent pushed it out yet) you can merge it locally 
too, by doing this ontop of tip/master:

  git-merge tip/tracing/pipe

it should merge up cleanly and you should be able to check the end 
result. (and send me any fixes for merge mistakes)

( Once it's all in reasonably well-tested shape it will all show up in 
  tip/master and you can stop dealing with tip/tracing/* sub-branches.)
