Just coped with the feedbacks from Frederic Weisbecker.

I will rebase the whole patches to your git repo(the following one?) and
send them out as the -v6 revision:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-2.6-trace.git tip/tracing/core

Looking forward to the feedback from Ralf, Seems he is a little busy.
and also looking forward to the testing result from the other MIPS
developers, so, we can ensure ftrace for MIPS really function!

Welcome to clone this branch and test it:

git://dev.lemote.com/rt4ls.git  linux-mips/dev/ftrace-upstream

And this document will tell you how to play with it:
Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt

Thanks & Regards,
