<content type='text'>
Update the graph tracer examples to cover the new frame pointer semantics
(in terms of passing it along).  Move the HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_FP_TEST docs
out of the Kconfig, into the right place, and expand on the details.

'ftrace' is no longer the name of the function tracer, to activate
the function trace 'echo function &gt; current_tracer' is to be used instead
of 'echo ftrace &gt; current_tracer'. Update the documentation to reflect
the current implementation.

Rename Kprobes-based event tracer to kprobes-based tracing event
(kprobe-event), since it is not a tracer but an extensible
tracing event interface.

This also changes CONFIG_KPROBE_TRACER to CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENT
and sets it y by default.
