Subject: [PATCH 3/6] tracing: Add tp_pstore cmdline to have tracepoints go to pstore
Add the kernel command line tp_pstore option that will have
tracepoints go to persistent ram buffer as well as to the
trace buffer for further debugging. This is similar to tp_printk
cmdline option of ftrace.
Pstore support for event tracing is already added and we enable
logging to pstore only if cmdline is specified.
Passing "tp_pstore" will activate logging to pstore. To turn it
off, the sysctl /proc/sys/kernel/tracepoint_pstore can have '0'
echoed into it. Note, this only works if the cmdline option is
used. Echoing 1 into the sysctl file without the cmdline option
will have no affect.
