My thought exactly. Maybe if we defined it as "CLOCK_TRACE" and had
equivalent "trace_clock()" function used by both perf (instead of
perf_clock()) and ftrace the semantics would became clearer? This clock
could be then described as "source of timestamps used by Linux trace
infrastructure, in particular by ftrace and perf".
