I really don't see the point.. parsing /debug/tracing/events/*/format
gunk really is separate, furthermore things like powertop et al already
are separate projects and really need this lib.

I mean, who gives a bother where all that crap lives, if its in the
kernel tree its all close enough to keep an eye on.. its not like
kernel/events/ and kernel/trace/ are the same directory.

Ingo, please could you lighten up and let people get stuff done? Merging
the two implementations, wherever the result lives, is a better
situation that two dis-joint implementations. So either let Frederic
work or do it yourself but don't hand-wave and road-block stuff.
