tracing: add lock depth to entries
This patch adds the lock depth of the big kernel lock to the generic entry header. This way we can see the depth of the lock and help in removing the BKL. Example: # _------=> CPU# # / _-----=> irqs-off # | / _----=> need-resched # || / _---=> hardirq/softirq # ||| / _--=> preempt-depth # |||| /_--=> lock-depth # |||||/ delay # cmd pid |||||| time | caller # \ / |||||| \ | / <idle>-0 2.N..3 5902255250us+: lock_acquire: read rcu_read_lock <idle>-0 2.N..3 5902255253us+: lock_release: rcu_read_lock <idle>-0 2dN..3 5902255257us+: lock_acquire: xtime_lock <idle>-0 2dN..4 5902255259us : lock_acquire: clocksource_lock <idle>-0 2dN..4 5902255261us+: lock_release: clocksource_lock Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
