2012-01-11mm-tracepoint: rename page-free eventsKonstantin Khlebnikov
Rename mm_page_free_direct into mm_page_free and mm_pagevec_free into mm_page_free_batched Since v2.6.33-5426-gc475dab the kernel triggers mm_page_free_direct for all freed pages, not only for directly freed. So, let's name it properly. For pages freed via page-list we also trigger mm_page_free_batched event.

2009-09-22tracing, documentation: Add a document on the kmem tracepointsMel Gorman
Knowing tracepoints exist is not quite the same as knowing what they should be used for. This patch adds a document giving a basic description of the kmem tracepoints and why they might be useful to a performance analyst.
