[PATCH] ftrace: sched_switch plugin is deprecated.

[PATCH] ftrace: sched_switch plugin is deprecated.

[Geunsik Lim]

From: Geunsik Lim <geunsik.lim@samsung.com>

Actually, sched_switch function tracer is merged into wakeup/wakeup_rt
Update 'mini-HOWTO' for ftrace(Kernel function tracer).
If we want to trace "sched:sched_switch" to trace sched_switch func,
We may utilize event option.(e.g: trace-cmd list -e | grep sched)
This patch is based on Linux-3.3.rc2-SMP-PREEMPT
