Well, I wasn't thinking *that* early actually. So, I'm trying to enable tracing
at some point after jump_labels (could be near perf_event_init).

Right now, the static ring buffer part is done and I'm having some
problems copying this ring buffer into the *real* one.

Mind giving me another hint?

Thanks a lot for your help so far,
Ezequiel.
