Hi Tom!

I tested this, played with it a little, and I think it's pretty much
ready to go. But I'm very nervous about sending this to Linux-next this
late in the current rc cycle. I would like this in next for a full
cycle before sending it to Linus.

Thus, I'm going to push everything up to but excluding:

  tracing: Add lock-free tracing_map

The hist tree that I tested and played with is on my repo in
ftrace/hist branch.

I'll push this to linux-next after 4.6-rc1 is released, and then we can
get it into the 4.7 merge window.

Does that sound fine to you?
