Subject: [PATCH 11/12] hw-breakpoints: ftrace plugin for kernel symbol tracing using HW Breakpoint interfaces

From: K.Prasad <prasad@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

This patch adds an ftrace plugin to detect and profile memory access over kernel
variables. It uses HW Breakpoint interfaces to 'watch memory addresses.
