Subject: blk_classic tracing horribly broken

Hi,

I've stared at the code for a while, and I've come up empty.  Would
anyone care to take a stab at fixing this?

To reproduce:

mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
echo blk > current_tracer
echo 1 > events/block/enable
echo 1 > options/blk_classic
echo 1 > tracing_on

dd if=/dev/<device> of=/dev/null bs=1M count=1 iflag=direct
cat trace

This is what I see:

# tracer: blk
#
# DEV   CPU TIMESTAMP     PID ACT FLG
#  |     |     |           |   |   |
