Subject: [PATCH] Add slowpath enter/exit trace events

From: Peter Enderborg <peter.enderborg@...y.com>

The warning of slow allocation has been removed, this is
a other way to fetch that information. But you need
to enable the trace. The exit function also returns
information about the number of retries, how long
it was stalled and failure reason if that happened.
