f6c9b16023 s390/diag: avoid lockdep recursion
The diagnose tracer will indirectly call back into the lockdep code
when lockdep does not expect it (arch_spinlock). This causes lockdep
to disable itself and therefore we don't have a working lock
dependency validator anymore.

This patch effectively disables tracing of diag 0x9c and 0x44 if
lockdep is enabled.  If however lockdep is enabled spinlocks are
mainly implemented using a trylock variant, which will not issue any
diag 0x9c or 0x44. So this change has hardly any effect on tracing
except when arch_spinlock and friends are explicitly used.

230ccb370f s390/diag: add a s390 prefix to the diagnose trace point
Documentation/trace/tracepoints.txt states that the naming scheme
for tracepoints is "subsys_event" to avoid collisions. Rename
the 'diagnose' tracepoint to 's390_diagnose'.

b5a6b71b19 s390/diag: add tracepoint for diagnose calls
To be able to analyse problems in regard to hypervisor overhead
add a tracepoing for diagnose calls. It reports the number of
the diagnose issued, e.g.

            sshd-1385  [002] ....    42.701431: diagnose: nr=0x9c
          <idle>-0     [001] ..s.    43.587528: diagnose: nr=0x9c
