tracing: add support for userspace stacktraces in tracing/iter_ctrl
Impact: add new (default-off) tracing visualization feature Usage example: mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing echo userstacktrace >iter_ctrl echo sched_switch >current_tracer echo 1 >tracing_enabled .... run application ... echo 0 >tracing_enabled Then read one of 'trace','latency_trace','trace_pipe'. To get the best output you can compile your userspace programs with frame pointers (at least glibc + the app you are tracing).
