tracing: Allow custom events to be added to the tracefs directory

Allow custom events to be added to the events directory in the tracefs
file system. For example, a module could be installed that attaches to an
event and wants to be enabled and disabled via the tracefs file system. It
would use trace_add_event_call() to add the event to the tracefs
directory, and trace_remove_event_call() to remove it.

Make both those functions EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL().
