Subject: tracing: Generate names for each kprobe event automatically
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Generate names for each kprobe event based on the probe point.
(SYMBOL+offs or MEMADDR).

Also remove generic k*probe event types because there is no user
of those types.
