+ * Now in the case that some function needs to be called when the

+ * TRACE_EVENT_FN() serves this purpose. This is just like TRACE_EVENT()

+ *
+ * TRACE_EVENT_FN( name, proto, args, struct, assign, printk, reg, unreg)
+ *
+ * reg and unreg are functions with the prototype of:
+ *
+ *    void reg(void)
+ *
+ * The reg function gets called before the tracepoint is enabled, and
+ * the unreg function gets called after the tracepoint is disabled.
+ *
+ * Note, reg and unreg are allowed to be NULL. If you only need to
+ * call a function before enabling, or after disabling, just set one
+ * function and pass in NULL for the other parameter.
