I will change that approach and create tracepoint. Also, I'll move it to the patch at the end of the functional changes.

The Energy Model (EM) supports runtime modifications. Track the changes in order to do post-processing analysis. Don't use arrays in the trace event, since they are not properly supported by the tools. Instead use simple "unroll" with emitting the trace event for each EM array entry with proper ID information. The older debugging mechanism which was the simple debugfs which dumping the EM content won't be sufficient for the modifiable EM purpose. This trace event mechanism would address the needs.
