tracing: Add 'enable_event' and 'disable_event' event trigger commands
Add 'enable_event' and 'disable_event' event_command commands. enable_event and disable_event event triggers are added by the user via these commands in a similar way and using practically the same syntax as the analagous 'enable_event' and 'disable_event' ftrace function commands, but instead of writing to the set_ftrace_filter file, the enable_event and disable_event triggers are written to the per-event 'trigger' files: echo 'enable_event:system:event' > .../othersys/otherevent/trigger echo 'disable_event:system:event' > .../othersys/otherevent/trigger The above commands will enable or disable the 'system:event' trace events whenever the othersys:otherevent events are hit. This also adds a 'count' version that limits the number of times the command will be invoked: echo 'enable_event:system:event:N' > .../othersys/otherevent/trigger echo 'disable_event:system:event:N' > .../othersys/otherevent/trigger Where N is the number of times the command will be invoked. The above commands will will enable or disable the 'system:event' trace events whenever the othersys:otherevent events are hit, but only N times. This also makes the find_event_file() helper function extern, since it's useful to use from other places, such as the event triggers code, so make it accessible.
