Add support for a timestamp event field. This is actually a 'pseudo-' event field in that it behaves like it's part of the event record, but is really part of the corresponding ring buffer event. To make use of the timestamp field, users can specify "common_timestamp" as a field name for any histogram. Note that this doesn't make much sense on its own either as either a key or value, but needs to be supported even so, since follow-on patches will add support for making use of this field in time deltas. Note that the use of this field requires the ring buffer be put into TIME_EXTEND_ABS mode, which saves the complete timestamp for each event rather than an offset. This mode will be enabled if and only if a histogram makes use of the "common_timestamp" field.

I think it's not needed since hist_field is allocated by kzalloc(). Also I cannot find where ->is_signed is set.

Hmm.. does it makes all events using absolute timestamp? Where is it turned off? Thanks, Namhyung
