Arnd Bergmann 934275c480 samples: v4l: from Documentation to samples directory
A small bug with the new autoksyms support showed that there are
two kernel modules in the Documentation directory that qualify
as samples, while all other samples are in the samples/ directory.

This patch was originally meant as a workaround for that bug, but
it has now been solved in a different way. However, I still think
it makes sense as a cleanup to consolidate all sample code in
one place.

Christoph Hellwig 517982229f configfs: remove old API
Remove the old show_attribute and store_attribute methods and update
the documentation.  Also replace the two C samples with a single new
one in the proper samples directory where people expect to find it.

Steven Rostedt d75f717e19 tracing: Remove tracepoint sample code
The tracepoint sample code was used to teach developers how to
create their own tracepoints. But now the trace_events have been
added as a higher level that is used directly by developers today.

Only the trace_event code should use the tracepoint interface
directly and no new tracepoints should be added.

Besides, the example had a race condition with the use of the
 ->d_name.name dentry field, as pointed out by Al Viro.

Best just to remove the code so it wont be used by other developers.

Ohad Ben-Cohen 779b96d20c samples/rpmsg: add an rpmsg driver sample
Add an rpmsg driver sample, which demonstrates how to communicate with
an AMP-configured remote processor over the rpmsg bus.

Note how once probed, the driver can immediately start sending messages
using the rpmsg_send() API, without having to worry about creating endpoints
or allocating rpmsg addresses: all that work is done by the rpmsg bus,
and the required information is already embedded in the rpmsg channel
that the driver is probed with.

In this sample, the driver simply sends a "Hello World!" message to the remote
processor repeatedly.

Designed with Brian Swetland <swetland@google.com>.

Conflicts:
	kernel/Makefile
	kernel/trace/Makefile
	kernel/trace/trace.h

Merge reason: We need to be uptodate with the perf events development
branch because we plan to rewrite the breakpoints API on top of
perf events.

K.Prasad 432039933a hw-breakpoints: sample HW breakpoint over kernel data address
This patch introduces a sample kernel module to demonstrate the use of Hardware
Breakpoint feature. It places a breakpoint over the kernel variable 'pid_max'
to monitor all write operations and emits a function-backtrace when done.

Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli 804defea1c Kprobes: move kprobe examples to samples/
Move kprobes examples from Documentation/kprobes.txt to under samples/.
Patch originally by Randy Dunlap.

o Updated the patch to apply on 2.6.25-rc3
o Modified examples code to build on multiple architectures. Currently,
  the kprobe and jprobe examples code works for x86 and powerpc
o Cleaned up unneeded #includes
o Cleaned up Kconfig per Sam Ravnborg's suggestions to fix build break
  on archs that don't have kretprobes
o Implemented suggestions by Mathieu Desnoyers on CONFIG_KRETPROBES
o Included Andrew Morton's cleanup based on x86-git
o Modified kretprobe_example to act as a arch-agnostic module to
  determine routine execution times:
	Use 'modprobe kretprobe_example func=<func_name>' to determine
	execution time of func_name in nanoseconds.
