[PATCH v3 5/6] tracing/user_events: Use bits vs bytes for enabled status page data

[Beau Belgrave <beaub@linux.microsoft.com>]

User processes may require many events and when they do the cache
performance of a byte index status check is less ideal than a bit index.
The previous event limit per-page was 4096, the new limit is 32,768.

This change adds a bitwise index to the user_reg struct. Programs check
that the bit at status_bit has a bit set within the status page(s).
