Steven Rostedt 033c55fe2e tracing: Fix ftrace event field alignments
The fields of ftrace specific events (events used to save ftrace internal
events like function traces and trace_printk) are generated similarly to
how normal trace event fields are generated. That is, the fields are added
to a trace_events_fields array that saves the name, offset, size,
alignment and signness of the field. It is used to produce the output in
the format file in tracefs so that tooling knows how to parse the binary
data of the trace events.

The issue is that some of the ftrace event structures are packed. The
function graph exit event structures are one of them. The 64 bit calltime
and rettime fields end up 4 byte aligned, but the algorithm to show to
userspace shows them as 8 byte aligned.

The macros that create the ftrace events has one for embedded structure
fields. There's two macros for theses fields:

  __field_desc() and __field_packed()

The difference of the latter macro is that it treats the field as packed.

Rename that field to __field_desc_packed() and create replace the
__field_packed() to be a normal field that is packed and have the calltime
and rettime use those.

This showed up on 32bit architectures for function graph time fields. It
had:

 ~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ftrace/funcgraph_exit/format
[..]
        field:unsigned long func;       offset:8;       size:4; signed:0;
        field:unsigned int depth;       offset:12;      size:4; signed:0;
        field:unsigned int overrun;     offset:16;      size:4; signed:0;
        field:unsigned long long calltime;      offset:24;      size:8; signed:0;
        field:unsigned long long rettime;       offset:32;      size:8; signed:0;

Notice that overrun is at offset 16 with size 4, where in the structure
calltime is at offset 20 (16 + 4), but it shows the offset at 24. That's
because it used the alignment of unsigned long long when used as a
declaration and not as a member of a structure where it would be aligned
by word size (in this case 4).

By using the proper structure alignment, the format has it at the correct
offset:

 ~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ftrace/funcgraph_exit/format
[..]
        field:unsigned long func;       offset:8;       size:4; signed:0;
        field:unsigned int depth;       offset:12;      size:4; signed:0;
        field:unsigned int overrun;     offset:16;      size:4; signed:0;
        field:unsigned long long calltime;      offset:20;      size:8; signed:0;
        field:unsigned long long rettime;       offset:28;      size:8; signed:0;
