hi,
this means that when CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING is set, the 'generic' syscall
enter/exit will show up as events in the debugfs, but enabling them
wouldn't do anything. I think we should simply drop the
'CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS' 'ifdef' and 'else' clause. That will give us
what we want - tying these callbacks directly to tracepoint.
thanks,
-Jason
