If no events are defined but Feater-Trace support is enabled, then the current
implementation generates a link error because the __event_table sections is
absent.

As a simple work around, we force zero-element array to always be "allocated"
in the __event_table section. This ensures that we end up with a zero-byte
section if no events are enabled, and does not affect the layout of the section
if events are present.

Feather-Trace rewrites instructions in the kernel's .text segment.
This segment may be write-protected if CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is selected.
In this case, fall back to the default flag-based Feather-Trace
implementation. In the future, we could either adopt the ftrace method
of rewriting .text addresses using non-.text mappings or we could
consider replacing Feather-Trace with ftrace altogether.
For now, this patch avoids unexpected runtime errors.

The idea of the Feather-Trace default implementation is that LITMUS^RT should
work without a specialized Feather-Trace implementation present. This was
actually broken.
Changes litmus/feather_trace.h to only include asm/feather_trace.h if actually
promised by the architecture.
