This series decouples kernel.h with some explicit and implicit dependencies; also, moves tracing functionality to a new independent header. My local build testing shows ~2% performance improvement for GCC + Ubuntu x86_64/localyesconfig. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251129195304.204082-1-yury.norov@gmail.com/ v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251203162329.280182-1-yury.norov@gmail.com/ v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251205175237.242022-1-yury.norov@gmail.com/ v4: - drop kernel.h dependency on linux/instruction_pointer.h (new patch #4); - drop trace_printk.h dependency on string.h (new patch #5 - Steven); - drop kernel.h dependency on trace_printk.h (new patch #7); - explicitly tested
