Subject: [PATCH v6 29/37] tracing: Add cpu field for hist triggers

A common key to use in a histogram is the cpuid - add a new cpu
'synthetic' field for that purpose.  This field is named cpu rather
than $cpu or $common_cpu because 'cpu' already exists as a special
filter field and it makes more sense to match that rather than add
another name for the same thing.

   The examples below provide a more concrete illustration of the
   concepts and typical usage patterns discussed above.
 
+  'special' event fields
+  ------------------------
+
+  There are a number of 'special event fields' available for use as
+  keys or values in a hist trigger.  These look like and behave as if
+  they were actual event fields, but aren't really part of the event's
+  field definition or format file.  They are however available for any
+  event, and can be used anywhere an actual event field could be.
+  'Special' field names are always prefixed with a '$' character to
+  indicate that they're not normal fields (with the exception of
+  'cpu', for compatibility with existing filter usage):
+
+    $common_timestamp      u64 - timestamp (from ring buffer) associated
+                                 with the event, in nanoseconds.  May be
+				 modified by .usecs to have timestamps
+				 interpreted as microseconds.
+    cpu                    int - the cpu on which the event occurred.
