Subject: [PATCH] interconnect: Add basic tracepoints

The tracepoints can help with understanding the system behavior of a
given interconnect path when the consumer drivers change their bandwidth
demands. This might be interesting when we want to monitor the requested
interconnect bandwidth for each client driver. The paths may share the
same nodes and this will help to understand "who and when is requesting
what". All this is useful for subsystem drivers developers and may also
provide hints when optimizing the power and performance profile of the
system.

This is very useful, thanks for writing it up.

When I've been debugging interconnect things I've added a
kstrdup_const() of "name" in of_icc_get() and then included that here.

I find including the path name quite useful for devices with multiple
paths.

And analog to e.g. the clock traces I would suggest that you trace
device, path and "ret" here.

If you are going to switch to device name and path, please just pass in
the path to the trace point. Then have the TP_fast_assign() do the rest
of the work.

Thanks!
