Subject: [PATCH 1/2] tracepoint: simplify for tracepoint using RCU
Now, unused memory is handled by struct tp_probes.
old code use these three field to handle unused memory.
struct tracepoint_entry {
...
struct rcu_head rcu;
void *oldptr;
unsigned char rcu_pending:1;
...
};
in this way, unused memory is handled by struct tracepoint_entry.
it bring reenter bug(it was fixed) and tracepoint.c is filled
full of ".*rcu.*" code statements. this patch remove all these.
and:
rcu_barrier_sched() is removed.
Do not need regain tracepoints_mutex after tracepoint_update_probes()
several little cleanup.
