So that's quite a huge patch that would have needed to be split up.
Especially this tracing engine.

Speaking of which, I agree with Thomas that it's unnecessary. It's too much
code and complexity. We can use the existing trace events and perform the
analysis from userspace to find the source of the disturbance.

Thanks.
