tracing: Add snapshot at end of kernel boot up
Add ftrace_boot_snapshot kernel parameter that will take a snapshot at the end of boot up just before switching over to user space (it happens during the kernel freeing of init memory). This is useful when there's interesting data that can be collected from kernel start up, but gets overridden by user space start up code. With this option, the ring buffer content from the boot up traces gets saved in the snapshot at the end of boot up. This trace can be read from: /sys/kernel/tracing/snapshot Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
