The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing.
But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst:
Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs
file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system,
the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at:
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
A few spots in tools/virtio still refer to this older debugfs
path, so let's update them to avoid confusion.

We need to have a unique chardev for each data path, else the chardevs
will collide and qemu will die with this message:
qemu-system-x86_64: -device
virtserialport,bus=virtio-serial0.0,nr=2,chardev=charchannel0,
id=channel1,name=trace-path-cpu0:
Property 'virtserialport.chardev' can't take value 'charchannel0':
Device 'charchannel0' is in use

This patch adds a user tool, "trace agent" for sending trace data of a guest to
a Host in low overhead. This agent has the following functions:
- splice a page of ring-buffer to read_pipe without memory copying
- splice the page from write_pipe to virtio-console without memory copying
- write trace data to stdout by using -o option
- controlled by start/stop orders from a Host
Changes in v2:
- Cleanup (change fprintf() to pr_err() and an include guard)
