The two above are pretty much identical, except the first one has "pmd=%lx"
for the pmd, and the second has "val=%lx" for the pmd. I'd suggest they
both be the same, and then you could save memory by combining the two into
DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() / DEFINE_EVENT() macros:

DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS(migration_pmd,

	TP_PROTO(unsigned long addr, unsigned long pmd),

	TP_ARGS(addr, pmd),

	TP_STRUCT__entry(
		__field(unsigned long, addr)
		__field(unsigned long, pmd)
	),

	TP_fast_assign(
		__entry->addr = addr;
		__entry->pmd = pmd;
	),

	TP_printk("create pmd migration entry addr=%lx, pmd=%lx", __entry->addr, __entry->pmd)
);

DEFINE_EVENT(migration_pmd, set_migration_pmd,
	TP_PROTO(unsigned long addr, unsigned long pmd),
	TP_ARGS(addr, pmd)
);

DEFINE_EVENT(migration_pmd, remove_migration_pmd,
	TP_PROTO(unsigned long addr, unsigned long pmd),
	TP_ARGS(addr, pmd)
);

And then you have the same thing, but it combines the code which saves both
data and text.
