From: Steven Rostedt During testing we often use randconfig to test various kernels. The current configuration set up does not give an easy way to disable all tracing with a single config. The case where randconfig would test all tracing disabled is very unlikely. This patch adds a config option to enable or disable all tracing. It is hooked into the tracing menu just like other submenus are done.
