tracing: Have event inject files inc the trace array ref count

The event inject files add events for a specific trace array. For an
instance, if the file is opened and the instance is deleted, reading or
writing to the file will cause a use after free.

Up the ref count of the trace_array when a event inject file is opened.

tracing: Replace all non-returning strlcpy with strscpy

strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first.
This read may exceed the destination size limit.
This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read
overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1].
In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace
strlcpy() here with strscpy().

No return values were used, so direct replacement with strlcpy is safe.

tracing: Support __rel_loc relative dynamic data location attribute

Add '__rel_loc' new dynamic data location attribute which encodes
the data location from the next to the field itself.

The '__data_loc' is used for encoding the dynamic data location on
the trace event record. But '__data_loc' is not useful if the writer
doesn't know the event header (e.g. user event), because it records
the dynamic data offset from the entry of the record, not the field
itself.

This new '__rel_loc' attribute encodes the data location relatively
from the next of the field. For example, when there is a record like
below (the number in the parentheses is the size of fields)

|header(N)|common(M)|fields(K)|__data_loc(4)|fields(L)|data(G)|

In this case, '__data_loc' field will be

__data_loc = (G << 16) | (N+M+K+4+L)

If '__rel_loc' is used, this will be

|header(N)|common(M)|fields(K)|__rel_loc(4)|fields(L)|data(G)|

where

__rel_loc = (G << 16) | (L)

This case shows L bytes after the '__rel_loc' attribute field,
if there is no fields after the __rel_loc field, L must be 0.

This is relatively easy (and no need to consider the kernel header
change) when the event data fields are composed by user who doesn't
know header and common fields.

tracing: Merge irqflags + preempt counter.

The state of the interrupts (irqflags) and the preemption counter are
both passed down to tracing_generic_entry_update(). Only one bit of
irqflags is actually required: The on/off state. The complete 32bit
of the preemption counter isn't needed. Just whether of the upper bits
(softirq, hardirq and NMI) are set and the preemption depth is needed.

The irqflags and the preemption counter could be evaluated early and the
information stored in an integer `trace_ctx'.
tracing_generic_entry_update() would use the upper bits as the
TRACE_FLAG_* and the lower 8bit as the disabled-preemption depth
(considering that one must be substracted from the counter in one
special cases).

The actual preemption value is not used except for the tracing record.
The `irqflags' variable is mostly used only for the tracing record. An
exception here is for instance wakeup_tracer_call() or
probe_wakeup_sched_switch() which explicilty disable interrupts and use
that `irqflags' to save (and restore) the IRQ state and to record the
state.

Struct trace_event_buffer has also the `pc' and flags' members which can
be replaced with `trace_ctx' since their actual value is not used
outside of trace recording.

This will reduce tracing_generic_entry_update() to simply assign values
to struct trace_entry. The evaluation of the TRACE_FLAG_* bits is moved
to _tracing_gen_ctx_flags() which replaces preempt_count() and
local_save_flags() invocations.

As an example, ftrace_syscall_enter() may invoke:
- trace_buffer_lock_reserve() -> … -> tracing_generic_entry_update()
- event_trigger_unlock_commit()
-> ftrace_trace_stack() -> … -> tracing_generic_entry_update()
-> ftrace_trace_userstack() -> … -> tracing_generic_entry_update()

In this case the TRACE_FLAG_* bits were evaluated three times. By using
the `trace_ctx' they are evaluated once and assigned three times.

A build with all tracers enabled on x86-64 with and without the patch:

text data bss dec hex filename
21970669 17084168 7639260 46694097 2c87ed1 vmlinux.old
21970293 17084168 7639260 46693721 2c87d59 vmlinux.new

text shrank by 379 bytes, data remained constant.

tracing: Introduce trace event injection

We have been trying to use rasdaemon to monitor hardware errors like
correctable memory errors. rasdaemon uses trace events to monitor
various hardware errors. In order to test it, we have to inject some
hardware errors, unfortunately not all of them provide error
injections. MCE does provide a way to inject MCE errors, but errors
like PCI error and devlink error don't, it is not easy to add error
injection to each of them. Instead, it is relatively easier to just
allow users to inject trace events in a generic way so that all trace
events can be injected.

This patch introduces trace event injection, where a new 'inject' is
added to each tracepoint directory. Users could write into this file
with key=value pairs to specify the value of each fields of the trace
event, all unspecified fields are set to zero values by default.

For example, for the net/net_dev_queue tracepoint, we can inject:

INJECT=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_queue/inject
echo "" > $INJECT
echo "name='test'" > $INJECT
echo "name='test' len=1024" > $INJECT

Triggers could be triggered as usual too:

echo "stacktrace if len == 1025" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_queue/trigger
echo "len=1025" > $INJECT
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace

The only thing that can't be injected is string pointers as they
require constant string pointers, this can't be done at run time.
