tracing: Add 'stacktrace' event trigger command
Add 'stacktrace' event_command. stacktrace event triggers are added by the user via this command in a similar way and using practically the same syntax as the analogous 'stacktrace' ftrace function command, but instead of writing to the set_ftrace_filter file, the stacktrace event trigger is written to the per-event 'trigger' files: echo 'stacktrace' > .../tracing/events/somesys/someevent/trigger The above command will turn on stacktraces for someevent i.e. whenever someevent is hit, a stacktrace will be logged. This also adds a 'count' version that limits the number of times the command will be invoked: echo 'stacktrace:N' > .../tracing/events/somesys/someevent/trigger Where N is the number of times the command will be invoked. The above command will log N stacktraces for someevent i.e. whenever someevent is hit N times, a stacktrace will be logged.
