Subject: [PATCH -tip] ftrace: tracing header should put '#' at the beginning of a line


In recently discussion, Andrew Morton pointed out that tracing header 
should put '#' at the beginning of a line.
Then, we can easily filtered the header by following grep usage.

# cat trace | grep -v '^#'


At that time, they discuss to only latency tracer. but wakeup trace 
also have the same header.


comparision display header:
