Any reason why you aren't returning the error value from the monitor
registration?
Other than that, the monitor seems neat and reasonably easy to
generate.
May not be necessary in this series, but try to keep compatibility with
the userspace RV tool as well, you need to have some special case in
its tracing components because fields are not matching:
# rv mon sleep -t
rcuc/11-108 [011] event <CANT FIND FIELD final_state>
(null) x (null) -> (null) Y
rcuc/11-108 [011] event <CANT FIND FIELD final_state>
(null) x (null) -> (null) Y
ktimers/11-109 [011] event <CANT FIND FIELD final_state>
(null) x (null) -> (null) Y
Thanks,
Gabriele
