[PATCH v2] tracing: Clean up use of trace_create_maxlat_file()

[Steven Rostedt]

From: Steven Rostedt <rost...@goodmis.org>

In trace.c, the function trace_create_maxlat_file() is defined behind the
 #ifdef CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE block. The #else part defines it as:

 #define trace_create_maxlat_file(tr, d_tracer)                         \
        trace_create_file("tracing_max_latency", TRACE_MODE_WRITE,      \
                          d_tracer, tr, &tracing_max_lat_fops)

But the one place that it it used has:

 #ifdef CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE
        trace_create_maxlat_file(tr, d_tracer);
 #endif

Which is pointless.

Define trace_create_maxlat_file() when CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE is not
defined as:

 static inline void trace_create_maxlat_file(struct trace_array *tr,
                                     struct dentry *d_tracer) { }

And remove the #ifdef's from the code.
