<title>kprobes/trace: Fix kprobe selftest for gcc 4.6</title>

<content type='text'>
With gcc 4.6, the self test kprobe function:

 kprobe_trace_selftest_target()

is optimized such that kallsyms does not list it. The kprobes
test uses this function to insert a probe and test it. But
it will fail the test if the function is not listed in kallsyms.

Adding a __used annotation keeps the symbol in the kallsyms table.

<title>sched: Get rid of lock_depth</title>

Neil Brown pointed out that lock_depth somehow escaped the BKL
removal work.  Let's get rid of it now.

Note that the perf scripting utilities still have a bunch of
code for dealing with common_lock_depth in tracepoints; I have
left that in place in case anybody wants to use that code with
older kernels.

Add NULL check for avoiding NULL pointer deref.
This bug has been introduced by:

  1ff511e35ed8: tracing/kprobes: Add bitfield type

which causes a null pointer dereference bug when kprobe-tracer

Add bitfield type for tracing arguments on kprobe-tracer.  The syntax of
a bitfield type is:

 b&lt;bit-size&gt;@&lt;bit-offset&gt;/&lt;container-size&gt;

e.g.

Accessing 2 bits-width field with 4 bits-offset in 32 bits-width data at
4 bytes offseted from the address pointed by AX register:

 +4(%ax):b2@4/32

Since the width of container data depends on the arch, so I just added
the container-size at the end.

Since strict_strtol() accepts minus digits started with '-', it doesn't
need to invert after converting.

Check the argument name whether it is invalid (not C-like symbol name). This
