From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]> Steven recommended open coding access to tracepoint->key to add trace points to headers. Unfortunately this is difficult for some headers (such as x86 asm/msr.h) because including tracepoint.h includes so many other headers that it causes include loops. The main problem is the include of linux/rcupdate.h, which pulls in a lot of other headers. The rcu header is only needed when actually defining trace points.
Move the struct tracepoint into a separate tracepoint-defs.h header that can be included without pulling in all of RCU.
