Subject: [PATCH 0/3] tracing/kprobes: trace_probe->files cleanups

Hello.

I simply can't understand why trace_kprobe.c uses
"struct ftrace_event_file **", the simple list_head looks much
more natural and simple.

And we do not want to copy-and-paste this code to trace_uprobe.c.
If there is a reason for array-of-pointers we should create the
helpers in the common trace_probe.c so that uprobes can use them
too.

Oleg.
