tracing/events: convert event call sites to use a link list

Impact: makes it possible to define events in modules The events are created by reading down the section that they are linked in by the macros. But this is not scalable to modules. This patch converts the manipulations to use a global link list, and on boot up it adds the items in the section to the list. This change will allow modules to add their tracing events to the list as well. Note, this change alone does not permit modules to use the TRACE_EVENT macros, but the change is needed for them to eventually do so. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
