tracing/blktrace: move the tracing file to kernel/trace
Impact: cleanup Move blktrace.c to kernel/trace, also move its config entry. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

314 Say Y here if you want to be able to trace the block layer actions
315 on a given queue. Tracing allows you to see any traffic happening
316 on a block device queue. For more information (and the userspace
317 support tools needed), fetch the blktrace tools from:
318
319 git://git.kernel.dk/blktrace.git
320
321 Tracing also is possible using the ftrace interface, e.g.:
322
323 echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/sda1/trace/enable
324 echo blk > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
325 cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe
326
327 If unsure, say N.
