Merge tag 'trace-v6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Add function names as a way to filter function addresses

 - Add sample module to test ftrace ops and dynamic trampolines

 - Allow stack traces to be passed from beginning event to end event for
   synthetic events. This will allow seeing the stack trace of when a
   task is scheduled out and recorded when it gets scheduled back in.

 - Add trace event helper __get_buf() to use as a temporary buffer when
   printing out trace event output.

 - Add kernel command line to create trace instances on boot up.

 - Add enabling of events to instances created at boot up.

 - Add trace_array_puts() to write into instances.

 - Allow boot instances to take a snapshot at the end of boot up.

 - Allow live patch modules to include trace events

 - Minor fixes and clean ups
