You could rather add the struct ftrace_event_call *event as
a parameter to a generic function static int init_enter_syscall()
That would require adding this parameter in the raw_init() callback.
If I remember well, Masami does that in his kprobes events patchset.
May be we can let it as is and wait for his patchset to be integrated
to update that.

I wonder if we should WARN once in this case. At least we would
be aware of new yet unsupported syscalls.

Nice.
It's a bit too bad that enter and exit must be that separated
whereas their callbacks are pretty the same.
But I guess if we want to nicely decouple both, we don't have the choice.
