Sorry for missing that. It's still in my INBOX in the "to look at"
markings ;-)

Actually, have you seen Tom Zanussi's patch series about histograms.
"tracing: Inter-event (e.g. latency) support". He just recently posted
another series.

I'd like to get that in before looking at adding events into the
critical sections. But that said, I'll still take a look at your patch.

Thanks for reminding me.
