Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] trace: Add migrate-disabled counter to tracing
output.
BTW,
When doing a v2, always create a new thread. Never send it as a reply to
the previous patch. The reason I missed this is because replies to previous
patches do not end up in my internal patchwork. And I only look at that for
patches. Not my INBOX.

I'm going to have to nuke this hunk of the patch, and update all the other
locations that have preempt_mg_count in it. Because I just tested it, and
this breaks user space.

Because to parse the preempt portion, libtraceevent searches for
"common_preempt_count". When it's not found, -1 is used.
As the migrate disable is an offset, we can at least filter that.
And if and old libtraceevent is used, the preempt counts will be the
combination of both, and although it may be a little confusing, at least,
it can be figured out.
I'm going to fold the below patch into this patch if that's OK with you?
