[PATCH 3/6] tools/lib/traceevent: Changed return logic of trace_seq_printf() and trace_seq_vprintf() APIs
From: Tzvetomir Stoyanov In order to make libtraceevent into a proper library, its API should be straightforward. The trace_seq_printf() and trace_seq_vprintf() APIs have inconsistent returned values with the other trace_seq_* APIs. This path changes the return logic of trace_seq_printf() and trace_seq_vprintf() - to return the number of printed characters, as the other trace_seq_* related APIs.
