ceph: add trace points to the MDS client This patch adds trace points to the Ceph filesystem MDS client: - request submission (CEPH_MSG_CLIENT_REQUEST) and completion (CEPH_MSG_CLIENT_REPLY) - capabilities (CEPH_MSG_CLIENT_CAPS) These are the central pieces that are useful for analyzing MDS latency/performance problems from the client's perspective. In the long run, all doutc() calls should be replaced with tracepoints. This way, the Ceph filesystem can be traced at any time (without spamming the kernel log). Additionally, trace points can be used in BPF programs (which can even deference the pointer parameters and extract more values).
