Special traces type was only used by sysprof. Lets remove it now that sysprof ftrace plugin has been dropped.

[PATCH 1/3] tracing: Remove sysprof ftrace plugin
The sysprof ftrace plugin doesn't seem to be seriously used somewhere. There is a branch in the sysprof tree that makes an interface to it, but the real sysprof tool uses either its own module or perf events. Drop the sysprof ftrace plugin then, as it's mostly useless.

[PATCH 3/3] tracing: Use generic_file_llseek for debugfs
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd(a)arndb.de> The default for llseek will change to no_llseek, so the tracing debugfs files need to add explicit ..llseek assignments. Since we're dealing with regular files from a VFS perspective, use generic_file_llseek. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd(a)arndb.de> Cc: Steven Rostedt <... 20 Jul 2010 11:20

[PATCH wq#for-next] workqueue: fix mayday_mask handling on UP
All cpumasks are assumed to have cpu 0 permanently set on UP, so it can't be used to signify whether there's something to be done for the CPU. workqueue was using cpumask to track which CPU requested rescuer assistance and this led rescuer thread to think there always are pending mayday requests on UP, which resul... 20 Jul 2010 11:20

[patch 2/3] Dynamic Debug: Introduce ddebug_query= boot parameter
Dynamic debug lacks the ability to enable debug messages at boot time. One could patch initramfs or service startup scripts to write to /sys/../dynamic_debug/control, but this sucks. This patch makes it possible to pass a query in the same format one can write to /sys/../dynamic_debug/control via boot param. Whe... 20 Jul 2010 10:14
