tracing: Allow synthetic events to pass around stacktraces

[ Upstream commit 00cf3d672a9dd409418647e9f98784c339c3ff63 ]

Allow a stacktrace from one event to be displayed by the end event of a
synthetic event. This is very useful when looking for the longest latency
of a sleep or something blocked on I/O.

 # cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
 # echo 's:block_lat pid_t pid; u64 delta; unsigned long[] stack;' > dynamic_events
 # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:ts=common_timestamp.usecs,st=stacktrace  if prev_state == 1||prev_state == 2' > events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
 # echo 'hist:keys=prev_pid:delta=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts,s=$st:onmax($delta).trace(block_lat,prev_pid,$delta,$s)' >> events/sched/sched_switch/trigger

The above creates a "block_lat" synthetic event that take the stacktrace of
when a task schedules out in either the interruptible or uninterruptible
states, and on a new per process max $delta (the time it was scheduled
out), will print the process id and the stacktrace.

  # echo 1 > events/synthetic/block_lat/enable
  # cat trace
 #           TASK-PID     CPU#  |||||  TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
 #              | |         |   |||||     |         |
