tracing: Create class struct for events
This patch creates a ftrace_event_class struct that event structs point to. This class struct will be made to hold information to modify the events. Currently the class struct only holds the events system name. This patch slightly increases the size, but this change lays the ground work of other changes to make the footprint of tracepoints smaller. With 82 standard tracepoints, and 618 system call tracepoints (two tracepoints per syscall: enter and exit): text data bss dec hex filename 4913961 1088356 861512 6863829 68bbd5 vmlinux.orig 4914025 1088868 861512 6864405 68be15 vmlinux.class This patch also cleans up some stale comments in ftrace.h. v2: Fixed missing semi-colon in macro.
