Hi,

This is a series of patches to introduce scripts for the boot-time tracing.

- bconf2ftrace.sh generates a shell script from a bootconfig file which
  setup ftrace via tracefs. This is useful for checking whether your
  boot-time tracing bootconfig is working as you expected.

- ftrace2bconf.sh generates a bootconfig file from current ftrace setting.
  You can set up the ftrace manually and run a test on it before dump it
  to a bootconfig file.
  Note that some function-tracer/fgraph-tracer options are not supported
  by ftrace2bconf.sh, because the original wildcard expression has been
  lost during setup ftrace.

Also, this series improve the bootconfig command to increase usability.

- The bootconfig can format the bootconfig file without initrd. You don't
  need a dummy initrd anymore :)
- The bootconfig command supports -l (format as a list) option which
  outputs the bootconfig as a key-value list, as same as /proc/bootconfig.


Thank you,

---
