trace_define_field_ext() is not used outside of trace_events.c, it should
be static.

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
 "Fix showing of TASK_COMM_LEN instead of its value

  The TASK_COMM_LEN was converted from a macro into an enum so that BTF
  would have access to it. But this unfortunately caused TASK_COMM_LEN
  to display in the format fields of trace events, as they are created
  by the TRACE_EVENT() macro and such, macros convert to their values,
  where as enums do not.

  To handle this, instead of using the field itself to be display, save
  the value of the array size as another field in the trace_event_fields
  structure, and use that instead.

  Not only does this fix the issue, but also converts the other trace
  events that have this same problem (but were not breaking tooling).

  With this change, the original work around b3bc8547d3be6 ("tracing:
  Have TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM affect trace event types as well") could be
  reverted (but that should be done in the merge window)"

After commit 3087c61ed2c4 ("tools/testing/selftests/bpf: replace open-coded 16 with TASK_COMM_LEN"),
the content of the format file under
/sys/kernel/tracing/events/task/task_newtask was changed from
  field:char comm[16];    offset:12;    size:16;    signed:0;
to
  field:char comm[TASK_COMM_LEN];    offset:12;    size:16;    signed:0;

John reported that this change breaks older versions of perfetto.
Then Mathieu pointed out that this behavioral change was caused by the
use of __stringify(_len), which happens to work on macros, but not on enum
labels. And he also gave the suggestion on how to fix it:
  :One possible solution to make this more robust would be to extend
  :struct trace_event_fields with one more field that indicates the length
  :of an array as an actual integer, without storing it in its stringified
  :form in the type, and do the formatting in f_show where it belongs.

The result as follows after this change,
$ cat /sys/kernel/tracing/events/task/task_newtask/format
        field:char comm[16];    offset:12;      size:16;        signed:0;

poll() and select() on per_cpu trace_pipe and trace_pipe_raw do not work
since kernel 6.1-rc6. This issue is seen after the commit
42fb0a1e84ff525ebe560e2baf9451ab69127e2b ("tracing/ring-buffer: Have
polling block on watermark").

This issue is firstly detected and reported, when testing the CXL error
events in the rasdaemon and also erified using the test application for poll()
and select().

This issue occurs for the per_cpu case, when calling the ring_buffer_poll_wait(),
in kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c, with the buffer_percent &gt; 0 and then wait until the
percentage of pages are available. The default value set for the buffer_percent is 50
in the kernel/trace/trace.c.

As a fix, allow userspace application could set buffer_percent as 0 through
the buffer_percent_fops, so that the task will wake up as soon as data is added
to any of the specific cpu buffer.

the buffer_percent_fops, so that the task will wake up as soon as data is added
to any of the specific cpu buffer.

The pointer ptr is being initialized with a value that is never read,
it is being updated later on a call to strim. Remove the extraneous
initialization.

Use the 'struct' keyword for a struct's kernel-doc notation and
use the correct function parameter name to eliminate kernel-doc
warnings:

kernel/trace/trace_events_filter.c:136: warning: cannot understand function prototype: 'struct prog_entry '
kerne/trace/trace_events_filter.c:155: warning: Excess function parameter 'when_to_branch' description in 'update_preds'

Also correct some trivial punctuation problems.

<title>trace_events_hist: add check for return value of 'create_hist_field'</title>

Function 'create_hist_field' is called recursively at
trace_events_hist.c:1954 and can return NULL-value that's why we have
to check it to avoid null pointer dereference.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
