Adding ftrace_hash_remove function that removes all entries

It will be used in following changes where entries are allocated

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Fix printf format warning for bprintf

   sunrpc uses a trace_printk() that triggers a printf warning during
   the compile. Move the __printf() attribute around for when debugging
   is not enabled the warning will go away

 - Remove redundant check for EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED in
   event_filter_write()

   The FREED flag is checked in the call to event_file_file() and then
   checked again right afterward, which is unneeded

 - Clean up event_file_file() and event_file_data() helpers

   These helper functions played a different role in the past, but now
   with eventfs, the READ_ONCE() isn't needed. Simplify the code a bit
   and also add a warning to event_file_data() if the file or its data
   is not present

 - Remove updating file-&gt;private_data in tracing open

   All access to the file private data is handled by the helper
   functions, which do not use file-&gt;private_data. Stop updating it on
   open

 - Show ENUM names in function arguments via BTF in function tracing

   When showing the function arguments when func-args option is set for
   function tracing, if one of the arguments is found to be an enum,
   show the name of the enum instead of its number

 - Add new trace_call__##name() API for tracepoints

   Tracepoints are enabled via static_branch() blocks, where when not
   enabled, there's only a nop that is in the code where the execution
   will just skip over it. When tracing is enabled, the nop is converted
   to a direct jump to the tracepoint code. Sometimes more calculations
   are required to be performed to update the parameters of the
   tracepoint. In this case, trace_##name##_enabled() is called which is
   a static_branch() that gets enabled only when the tracepoint is
   enabled. This allows the extra calculations to also be skipped by the
   nop:

	if (trace_foo_enabled()) {
		x = bar();
		trace_foo(x);
	}

   Where the x=bar() is only performed when foo is enabled. The problem
   with this approach is that there's now two static_branch() calls. One
   for checking if the tracepoint is enabled, and then again to know if
   the tracepoint should be called. The second one is redundant

   Introduce trace_call__foo() that will call the foo() tracepoint
   directly without doing a static_branch():

	if (trace_foo_enabled()) {
		x = bar();
		trace_call__foo();
	}

 - Update various locations to use the new trace_call__##name() API

 - Move snapshot code out of trace.c

   Cleaning up trace.c to not be a "dump all", move the snapshot code
   out of it and into a new trace_snapshot.c file

 - Clean up some "%*.s" to "%*s"

 - Allow boot kernel command line options to be called multiple times

   Have options like:

	ftrace_filter=foo ftrace_filter=bar ftrace_filter=zoo

   Equal to:

	ftrace_filter=foo,bar,zoo

 - Fix ipi_raise event CPU field to be a CPU field

   The ipi_raise target_cpus field is defined as a __bitmask(). There is
   now a __cpumask() field definition. Update the field to use that

 - Have hist_field_name() use a snprintf() and not a series of strcat()

   It's safer to use snprintf() that a series of strcat()

 - Fix tracepoint regfunc balancing

   A tracepoint can define a "reg" and "unreg" function that gets called
   before the tracepoint is enabled, and after it is disabled
   respectively. But on error, after the "reg" func is called and the
   tracepoint is not enabled, the "unreg" function is not called to tear
   down what the "reg" function performed

 - Fix output that shows what histograms are enabled

   Event variables are displayed incorrectly in the histogram output

   Instead of "sched.sched_wakeup.$var", it is showing
   "$sched.sched_wakeup.var" where the '$' is in the incorrect location

 - Some other simple cleanups

<title>ftrace: Use kallsyms binary search for single-symbol lookup</title>

<id>93e8fd1a565eb5d0c0bbcb18d00095ad255b6ecb</id>
<content type='text'>
When ftrace_lookup_symbols() is called with a single symbol (cnt == 1),
use kallsyms_lookup_name() for O(log N) binary search instead of the
full linear scan via kallsyms_on_each_symbol().

ftrace_lookup_symbols() was designed for batch resolution of many
symbols in a single pass.  For large cnt this is efficient: a single
O(N) walk over all symbols with O(log cnt) binary search into the
sorted input array.  But for cnt == 1 it still decompresses all ~200K
kernel symbols only to match one.

kallsyms_lookup_name() uses the sorted kallsyms index and needs only
~17 decompressions for a single lookup.

This is the common path for kprobe.session with exact function names,
where libbpf sends one symbol per BPF_LINK_CREATE syscall.

If binary lookup fails (duplicate symbol names where the first match
is not ftrace-instrumented), the function falls through to the existing
linear scan path.

Before (cnt=1, 50 kprobe.session programs):
  Attach: 858 ms  (kallsyms_expand_symbol 25% of CPU)

After:
  Attach:  52 ms  (16x faster)

Some tracing boot parameters already accept delimited value lists, but
their __setup() handlers keep only the last instance seen at boot.
Make repeated instances append to the same boot-time buffer in the
format each parser already consumes.

Use a shared trace_append_boot_param() helper for the ftrace filters,
trace_options, and kprobe_event boot parameters.

This also lets Bootconfig array values work naturally when they expand
to repeated param=value entries.

Before this change, only the last instance from each repeated
parameter survived boot.

The modify logic registers temporary ftrace_ops object (tmp_ops) to trigger
the slow path for all direct callers to be able to safely modify attached
addresses.

At the moment we use ops-&gt;func_hash for tmp_ops filter, which represents all
the systems attachments. It's faster to use just the passed hash filter, which
contains only the modified sites and is always a subset of the ops-&gt;func_hash.

<title>ftrace: Disable preemption in the tracepoint callbacks handling filtered pids</title>

When function trace PID filtering is enabled, the function tracer will
attach a callback to the fork tracepoint as well as the exit tracepoint
that will add the forked child PID to the PID filtering list as well as
remove the PID that is exiting.

Commit a46023d5616e ("tracing: Guard __DECLARE_TRACE() use of
__DO_TRACE_CALL() with SRCU-fast") removed the disabling of preemption
when calling tracepoint callbacks.

The callbacks used for the PID filtering accounting depended on preemption
being disabled, and now the trigger a "suspicious RCU usage" warning message.

Make them explicitly disable preemption.

Ihor and Kumar reported splat from ftrace_get_addr_curr [1], which happened
because of the missing ftrace_lock in update_ftrace_direct_add/del functions
allowing concurrent access to ftrace internals.

The ftrace_update_ops function must be guarded by ftrace_lock, adding that.
