I really don't want to do that. Then I would need to show
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/current_trace
Which I really do not like. I state that the common place to mount it is in /sys/kernel/debug, But my examples are much easier to understand if I just do: # echo function_graph > /debug/current_trace
