From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com>

Add a tracepoint for tracing when softirq action is raised.

It and the existed tracepoints complete softirq's tracepoints:
softirq_raise, softirq_entry and softirq_exit.

And when this tracepoint is used in combination with
the softirq_entry tracepoint we can determine
the softirq raise latency.

It seems that this will break softirq_entry/exit tracepoints.
__entry->vec will deref vec->action() for these two, which is not
what we want.

If you can't have the same tracepoint signature for the three, just
split the new one in a seperate TRACE_EVENT().

Thanks.

But for trace_softirq_entry and trace_softirq_exit, vec will not be
NULL.

It may be a bit of a hack, and questionable about adding another
TRACE_EVENT(). There still is a pretty good space savings in using
DEFINE_EVENT() over TRACE_EVENT() though.

Yeah, let's keep it as is.

Perhaps doing:

	trace_softirq_raise((struct softirq_action *)((unsigend long)nr),
				NULL);

and ...

			__entry->vec = (int)h;

would be better.

Doing the above will at least be a bit safer.

Agreed, I'm going to change that in the patch.
