Hi,

This is v2 of the hist trigger snapshot and onchange additions
patchset.  It adds a couple fixes to problems flagged by the kbuild
test robot, but is otherwise the same as v1.

Changes since v1:

  - added missing tracing_cond_snapshot_data() definition for when
    CONFIG_TRACER_SNAPSHOT not defined
  - removed an unnecessary WARN_ON() in track_data_snapshot_print()

Original text:

This patchset adds some useful new functions to the hist
trigger code: a snapshot action and an onchange handler.

In order to make it easier to add these and in the process make the
code more generic, I separated the code into explicit 'handlers' and
'actions', handlers being things like 'onmax' and 'onchange', and
'actions' being things like 'take a snapshot' or 'save some fields'.

The first few patches do that basic refactoring, which make it easier
to add the subsequent changes that arbitrarily combine actions and
handlers.

The fourth patch adds a 'conditional snapshot' capability that via a
new tracing_snaphot_cond() function extends the existing snapshot
code.  It allows the caller to associate some user data with the
snapshot that can be checked and saved in an update() callback whose
return value determines whether the snapshot should be taken or not.

The remaining patches finally add the new snapshot action and onchange
handler functionality - please see those patches for details and some
examples.

Thanks,

Tom
