Subject: [PATCH v8 31/37] tracing: Add 'last error' error facility for hist triggers

With the addition of variables and actions, it's become necessary to
provide more detailed error information to users about syntax errors.

Add a 'last error' facility accessible via the erroring event's 'hist'
file.  Reading the hist file after an error will display more detailed
information about what went wrong, if information is available.  This
extended error information will be available until the next hist
trigger command for that event.

  # echo xxx > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger
  echo: write error: Invalid argument

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/hist

  ERROR: Couldn't yyy: zzz
  Last command: xxx

Also add specific error messages for variable and action errors.

+  Extended error information
+  --------------------------
+
+  For some error conditions encountered when invoking a hist trigger
+  command, extended error information is available via the
+  corresponding event's 'hist' file.  Reading the hist file after an
+  error will display more detailed information about what went wrong,
+  if information is available.  This extended error information will
+  be available until the next hist trigger command for that event.
+
+  If available for a given error condition, the extended error
+  information and usage takes the following form:
+
+    # echo xxx > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger
+    echo: write error: Invalid argument
+
+    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/hist
+    ERROR: Couldn't yyy: zzz
+      Last command: xxx
