Correct. The tools/lib does not have the same requirements as the
kernel code. It's purpose is to be a library for other tools, not just
what is in tree. Otherwise, I would be happy to add trace-cmd to the
kernel proper, as that is where this code originated from.
Don't delete those functions. They are required elsewhere.
