Subject: [PATCH V2 0/6] Add osnoise/options file

Was: Allow osnoise tracer to run without workload [1]

After adding the osnoise/options file, a set of on/off options
came to my mind, most based on discussions while debugging problems
with Juri and Clark.

So, this series now goes beyond running osnoise without a workload
by adding a set of practical options using the new osnoise/options file.

The [NO_]OSNOISE_WORKLOAD option allows the tracer to be dispatched
without workload, making the osnoise: tracepoints to become
generic events to measure the execution time of *any* task on Linux.

The PANIC_ON_STOP option facilitates the vmcore generation to aid
in the latency analysis using a crash dump.

The OSNOISE_PREEMPT_DISABLE and OSNOISE_IRQ_DISABLE options refine
the type of noise that the osnoise tracer detects, allowing the
tool to measure only IRQ-related noise, or NMI/HW-related noise,
respectively.

Each patch has a description of the options and the last patch
documents them in the osnoise documentation file.

  - Add Acked-by Masami to the first patch
  - Add the PANIC_ON_STOP option
  - Add the OSNOISE_PREEMPT_DISABLE and OSNOISE_IRQ_DISABLE options
  - Improved the documentationa
