|     ftrace: make work with new ring buffer
|
|     This patch ports ftrace over to the new ring buffer.

The detection is now fixed by using the ring buffer API.

When mmiotrace detects a buffer overrun, it will report the number of
lost events. People reading an mmiotrace log must know if something was
missed, otherwise the data may not make sense.
