Do we really need a full trace_event for this? Can we not follow the
task scheduler rule which says no new trace_events and use a trace_point
here? The footprint in the kernel would be so much smaller.

E.g. pelt_cfs_tp

0 sched.h  694 DECLARE_TRACE(pelt_cfs_tp,
1 core.c   106 EXPORT_TRACEPOINT_SYMBOL_GPL(pelt_cfs_tp);
2 fair.c  3937 trace_pelt_cfs_tp(cfs_rq);

And then this patch should be after the section with the functional changes.
