Merge tag 'trace-v5.6-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing and bootconfig updates:
"Fixes and changes to bootconfig before it goes live in a release.
Change in API of bootconfig (before it comes live in a release):
- Have a magic value "BOOTCONFIG" in initrd to know a bootconfig
exists
- Set CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG to 'n' by default
- Show error if "bootconfig" on cmdline but not compiled in
- Prevent redefining the same value
- Have a way to append values
- Added a SELECT BLK_DEV_INITRD to fix a build failure
Synthetic event fixes:
- Switch to raw_smp_processor_id() for recording CPU value in preempt
section. (No care for what the value actually is)
- Fix samples always recording u64 values
- Fix endianess
- Check number of values matches number of fields
- Fix a printing bug
Fix of trace_printk() breaking postponed start up tests
Make a function static that is only used in a single file"
