Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Addition of multiprobes to kprobe and uprobe events (allows for more
   than one probe attached to the same location)

 - Addition of adding immediates to probe parameters

 - Clean up of the recordmcount.c code. This brings us closer to merging
   recordmcount into objtool, and reuse code.

 - Other small clean ups

The current text could mislead the user into believing that only read()
disables tracing. Clarify that any open() call that requests read access
disables tracing.

<title>tracing/probe: Add immediate parameter support</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6218bf9f4d2942e88d97b60abc8c2ca0532e41a8</id>
<content type='text'>
Add immediate value parameter (\1234) support to
probe events. This allows you to specify an immediate
(or dummy) parameter instead of fetching from memory
or register.

This feature looks odd, but imagine when you put a probe
on a code to trace some data. If the code is compiled into
2 instructions and 1 instruction has a value but other has
nothing since it is optimized out.
In that case, you can not fold those into one event, even
if ftrace supported multiple probes on one event.
With this feature, you can set a dummy value like
foo=\deadbeef instead of something like foo=%di.

Convert the PM documents to ReST, in order to allow them to
build with Sphinx.

The conversion is actually:
  - add blank lines and indentation in order to identify paragraphs;
  - fix tables markups;
  - add some lists markups;
  - mark literal blocks;
  - adjust title markups.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.
