SubjectRe: [RFC PATCH 1/3] tracing: Add support for logging data to uncached buffer

Sorry for the late reply, I actually wrote this email over a week ago,
but never hit send. And the email was pushed back behind other
windows. :-/

No need for the initialization, you could just have:

static struct rtb_state rtb;

And it will be initialized to all zeros. Or did you do that to document
that it is not enabled at boot?

Why have the above static functions? They are not very helpful, and
appear to be actually confusing. They are used once.

How is the above better than:

start->log_type = log_type;
start->caller = caller;
start->data = data;
start->timestamp = sched_clock();

BTW, all files in this directory have their functions notrace by
default.
