Hi all,

This patch set is my attempt to replace our old debug(mlog) with new 
trace events.

Wengang Wang has did some work in this field about one year ago.
http://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-devel/2009-September/005230.html
But at that time we don't have ocfs2 1.6 introduced, so we delay this 
work until now after ocfs2 1.6 and UEK(Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel) 
are released.

All patches except one(see below) are only mlog related, so they 
shouldn't affect the normal operations in ocfs2 and they should be easy 
for review(patch 1-5 were already sent to the mail list around one month 
ago).

The only one that changes the codes somehow are patch 15, "ocfs2: Little 
refactoring against ocfs2_iget", but it looks straightforward.

Regards,
Tao
