tracing: explain why stack tracer is empty
If the stack tracing is disabled (by default) the stack_trace file
will only contain the header:
# cat /debug/tracing/stack_trace
Depth Size Location (0 entries)
----- ---- --------
This can be frustrating to a developer that does not realize that the
stack tracer is disabled. This patch adds the following text:
# cat /debug/tracing/stack_trace
Depth Size Location (0 entries)
----- ---- --------
#
# Stack tracer disabled
#
# To enable the stack tracer, either add 'stacktrace' to the
# kernel command line
# or 'echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/stack_tracer_enabled'
#
