Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Add strncmp_const() macro to prevent typos and cut
paste errors
The trace_events_hist.c file has a lot of strncmp()s of the form:
if (strncmp(str, "constant", sizeof("constant") - 1) == 0)
To prevent typos and errors with the constant string being different from
the string use in sizeof(), and also to condense the code, add a macro that
does this:
#define strncmp_const(str, str_const) \
strncmp(str, str_const, sizeof(str_const) - 1)
