Subject: [PATCH 0/6 v3] perf: Have perf become tracefs aware

As I'm trying to move the tracing directory from debugfs, perf needs to
be aware of this as system admins will now be able to mount the tracing
directory without needing to mount debugfs. This patch series addresses
this and makes perf aware of tracefs.

You can also get this series from my repo as stated below.

Changes since v2:

 o Fixed directory name to /sys/kernel/tracing as per Namhyung Kim's comment

Changes since v1:

 o Added a patch to nuke the debugfs_valid_mountpoint.
   Well, it doesn't totally nuke it. It still uses that function
   (static though) to test if the "default" debugfs locations may
   already contain a debugfs file system. I also have tracefs do the same.

 o Fixed setting of debugfs_found and tracefs_found

 o Moved STR macro and PATH_MAX macros from debugfs.h to findfs.h

 o Changed debugfs_configured() and tracefs_configured() to use
   find_mountpoint() to see if they are configured.
