I'm fine if kprobes goes through my tree.

Please do not add the above mailing list. That's more for tracing tools
like trace-cmd, kernelshark and the libtracefs/libtraceevent libraries.
Only API changes (additions) should go to that list. Not internal updates.

And this too is for the tracing tools, not the kernel. The patches status
on that patchwork do not get updated by changes to the kernel. Only changes
to the libraries and tool git trees will update those patches.

Again, don't add that list.

Nor the patchwork.
