Wengang,
	This looks like a nice start.  Thank you for getting this going.
I'm sorry I haven't gotten back until now, I've been busy.
	What I'd like to do next is get a small starting set of
tracepoints.  You have one tracepoint in this patch as a good example,
but we should get a few more.  I don't want every mlog changed into a
tracepoint.  Some of them are old and useless :-)  Instead, I'd like to
find information we often want while debugging.
	Tao, Tiger, and Sunil, what are parts of the code you often come
across when debugging?  Certain mlog() prints you always find really
important to see.  If you point them out, Wengang can cook up
tracepoints for them.
