Subject[patch 14/16] Tracepoints : add DECLARE_TRACE() and DEFINE_TRACE()
Add DEFINE_TRACE() to tracepoints to let them declare the tracepoint structure
in a single spot for all the kernel. It helps reducing memory consumption,
especially when declaring a lot of tracepoints, e.g. for kmalloc tracing.

*API CHANGE WARNING* : now, DECLARE_TRACE() must be used in headers for
tracepoint declarations rather than DEFINE_TRACE(). This is the sane way to do
it. The name previously used was misleading.

Updates scheduler instrumentation to follow this API change.

Impact: API *CHANGE*. Must update all tracepoint users.
