First, patch 1 and 2 can be folded into this patch. Making something
"available for future use" is not a reason to break up patches. It will not
help in bisecting, and its not something to be backported.
Next, the tracing subsystem follows the "Capitalize first letter" for
subjects:
"tracing: Make tp_printk work on syscall tracepoints"

Need to add much more content to the above. Your cover letter would work.
Currently the tp_printk option has no effect on syscall tracepoint.
When adding the kernel option parameter tp_printk, then:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/syscalls/enable
When running any application, no trace information is printed on the
terminal.
Now added printk for syscall tracepoints.
As commit logs should be self explanatory per commit. The cover letter was,
but this patch was lacking.

Instead of reimplementing the logic, just convert the syscall code to use,
trace_event_buffer_reserve() and trace_event_buffer_commit(), and then you
not only get tp_printk() for syscalls, but also other features as well.
