tracing: add per-subsystem filtering

This patch adds per-subsystem filtering to the event tracing subsystem.

It adds a 'filter' debugfs file to each subsystem directory.  This file
can be written to to set filters; reading from it will display the
current set of filters set for that subsystem.

Basically what it does is propagate the filter down to each event
contained in the subsystem.  If a particular event doesn't have a field
with the name specified in the filter, it simply doesn't get set for
that event.  You can verify whether or not the filter was set for a
particular event by looking at the filter file for that event.

As with per-event filters, compound expressions are supported, echoing
'0' to the subsystem's filter file clears all filters in the subsystem,
etc.
