This is the tracepoint used to spool all of printk into ftrace, I
suspect there's users, but I haven't used it myself.

I'm somewhat curious whether we can actually remove that trace event.

Good question.

Well, I think that it might be useful. It allows to see trace and
printk messages together.

It was ugly when it was in the console code. The new location
in vprintk_store() allows to have it even "correctly" sorted
(timestamp) against other tracing messages.

Best Regards,
Petr
