These patches provide fixes for the problems observed by Masami in the
new synthetic event dynamic string patchset.

The first patch (tracing: Don't show dynamic string internals in
synthetic event description) removes the __data_loc from the event
description but leaves it in the format.

The patch (tracing: Add synthetic event error logging) addresses the
lack of error messages when parse errors occur.

The remaining three patches address the other problems Masami noted
which result from allowing illegal characters in synthetic event and
field names when defining an event.  The is_good_name() function is
used to check that's not possible for the probe events, but should
also be used for the synthetic events as well.

(tracing: Move is_good_name() from trace_probe.h to trace.h) makes
that function available to other trace subsystems by putting it in
trace.h.  (tracing: Check that the synthetic event and field names are
legal) applies it to the synthetic events, and (selftests/ftrace:
Change synthetic event name for inter-event-combined test) changes a
testcase that now fails because it uses an illegal name.

The following changes since commit 848183553e431e6e9c2ea2f72421a7a1bbc6532e:

  tracing: Fix synthetic print fmt check for use of __get_str() (2020-10-08 15:29:07 -0400)
