+ * This is the core of the buffer management. Each
+ * CPU buffer is processed and entered into the
+ * global event buffer. Such processing is necessary
+ * in several circumstances, mentioned below.
+ *
+ * The processing does the job of converting the
+ * transitory EIP value into a persistent dentry/offset
+ * value that the profiler can record at its leisure.
+ *
+ * See fs/dcookies.c for a description of the dentry/offset
+ * objects.
