The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing.

But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst:

   Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs
   file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
   For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system,
   the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at:

   /sys/kernel/debug/tracing

A comment in kvm_stat still refers to this older debugfs path, so let's
update it to avoid confusion.

          All available events have directories under
-        /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/ which export information
+        /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ which export information
          about the specific event. Therefore, listing the dirs gives us
          a list of all available events.
