Merge tag 'trace-v5.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Addition of multiprobes to kprobe and uprobe events (allows for more
than one probe attached to the same location)
- Addition of adding immediates to probe parameters
- Clean up of the recordmcount.c code. This brings us closer to merging
recordmcount into objtool, and reuse code.
- Other small clean ups
