If there's no tracefs (RHEL7) support the tracing_path_mount
returns debugfs path which results in following fail:
# perf probe sys_write
kprobe_events file does not exist - please rebuild kernel with CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS.
Error: Failed to add events.
In tracing_path_debugfs_mount function we need to return the
'tracing' path instead of just the mount to make it work:
# perf probe sys_write
Added new event:
probe:sys_write (on sys_write)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:sys_write -aR sleep 1
Adding the 'return tracing_path;' also to tracing_path_tracefs_mount
function just for consistency with tracing_path_debugfs_mount.
Upstream keeps working, because it has the tracefs support.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
