[RFC] [PATCH] mtd: add tracepoints for mtd_read and mtd_write

Daniel Walter dwalter at sigma-star.at
Tue Nov 17 11:18:01 PST 2015


Add tracepoints to mtd subsystem for read and write
operations. This should allow us to identify applications
which are generating too much reads/writes on a flash-device.
