From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Add a function to facilitate creating a kprobe event. It has the "raw" in
its name because it still requires knowing the format of the kprobe. But
does handle the kprobe naming better and writing to the kprobe_event file.

+ * @system: The system name (NULL for the default kprobes)
+ * @event: The event to create (NULL to use @addr for the event)
+ * @addr: The function and offset (or address) to insert the probe
+ * @format: The raw format string to define the probe.
+ *
+ * Create a kprobe that will be in the @system group (or kprobes if
+ * @system is NULL). Have the name of @event (or @addr if @event is
+ * NULL). Will be inserted to @addr (function name, with or without
+ * offset, or a address). And the @format will define the raw format
+ * of the kprobe. See the Linux documentation file under:
+ * Documentation/trace/kprobetrace.rst
+ *
+ * Return 0 on success, or -1 on error.
+ *   If the syntex of @format was incorrect, running
+ *   tracefs_error_last(NULL) may show what went wrong.
+ *
+ * errno will be set to EBADMSG if addr or format is NULL.
