Use proc_create() to make sure that ->proc_fops be setup before gluing PDE to
main tree.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 4b65fc8cfb firmware: clean up samples for coding style issues
This fixes up a number of coding style issues in the firmware sample files.

Yeah, it still doesn't build properly yet, that's next...

Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli 804defea1c Kprobes: move kprobe examples to samples/
Move kprobes examples from Documentation/kprobes.txt to under samples/.
Patch originally by Randy Dunlap.

o Updated the patch to apply on 2.6.25-rc3
o Modified examples code to build on multiple architectures. Currently,
  the kprobe and jprobe examples code works for x86 and powerpc
o Cleaned up unneeded #includes
o Cleaned up Kconfig per Sam Ravnborg's suggestions to fix build break
  on archs that don't have kretprobes
o Implemented suggestions by Mathieu Desnoyers on CONFIG_KRETPROBES
o Included Andrew Morton's cleanup based on x86-git
o Modified kretprobe_example to act as a arch-agnostic module to
  determine routine execution times:
	Use 'modprobe kretprobe_example func=<func_name>' to determine
	execution time of func_name in nanoseconds.

Mathieu Desnoyers fb40bd78b0 Linux Kernel Markers: support multiple probes
RCU style multiple probes support for the Linux Kernel Markers.  Common case
(one probe) is still fast and does not require dynamic allocation or a
supplementary pointer dereference on the fast path.

- Move preempt disable from the marker site to the callback.

Since we now have an internal callback, move the preempt disable/enable to the
callback instead of the marker site.

Since the callback change is done asynchronously (passing from a handler that
supports arguments to a handler that does not setup the arguments is no
arguments are passed), we can safely update it even if it is outside the
preempt disable section.

- Move probe arm to probe connection. Now, a connected probe is automatically
  armed.

Remove MARK_MAX_FORMAT_LEN, unused.

This patch modifies the Linux Kernel Markers API : it removes the probe
"arm/disarm" and changes the probe function prototype : it now expects a
va_list * instead of a "...".

If we want to have more than one probe connected to a marker at a given
time (LTTng, or blktrace, ssytemtap) then we need this patch. Without it,
connecting a second probe handler to a marker will fail.

It allow us, for instance, to do interesting combinations :

Do standard tracing with LTTng and, eventually, to compute statistics
with SystemTAP, or to have a special trigger on an event that would call
a systemtap script which would stop flight recorder tracing.
