Subject: [PATCH 0/3] tracing: fix macro expansion and refactor some of dynamic_array support

Hi Steven Rostedt, Li Zefan,

This fixes an issue with macro expansion introduced in commit 7d536cb3f
(tracing/events: record the size of dynamic arrays).

I split it in 3 patches, the first fixes a bug, the second improves the code to
evaluate the expression only once and the third refactors an u32 holding two
pieces of data in lower/higher 16 bits into a struct to make the code cleaner.

I split them this way since I expect the first two to be more straightforward
while the third one might generate some discussion. I'd be happy to squash them
into a single one if you'd prefer that.

Cheers,
Filipe

Filipe Brandenburger (3):
  tracing: correctly expand len expressions from __dynamic_array macro
  tracing: evaluate len expression only once in __dynamic_array macro
  tracing: introduce a trace_data_offset struct to store array size
