tracing: Remove obsolete sched_switch tracer
The trace events sched_switch and sched_wakeup do the same thing as the stand alone sched_switch tracer does. It is no longer needed. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

| "nice" priorities with 100 being equal to nice -20 and 139 being | ||||
| nice 19. The prio "140" is reserved for the idle task which is | ||||
| the lowest priority thread (pid 0). | ||||

| As we have discussed previously about this format, the header | ||||
| shows the name of the trace and points to the options. The | ||||
| "FUNCTION" is a misnomer since here it represents the wake ups | ||||
| and context switches. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| The sched_switch file only lists the wake ups (represented with | ||||
| '+') and context switches ('==>') with the previous task or | ||||
| current task first followed by the next task or task waking up. | ||||
| The format for both of these is PID:KERNEL-PRIO:TASK-STATE. | ||||
| Remember that the KERNEL-PRIO is the inverse of the actual | ||||
| priority with zero (0) being the highest priority and the nice | ||||
| values starting at 100 (nice -20). Below is a quick chart to map | ||||
| the kernel priority to user land priorities. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|    Kernel Space                     User Space | ||||
|  =============================================================== | ||||
|    0(high) to  98(low)     user RT priority 99(high) to 1(low) | ||||
|                            with SCHED_RR or SCHED_FIFO | ||||
|  --------------------------------------------------------------- | ||||
|   99                       sched_priority is not used in scheduling | ||||
|                            decisions(it must be specified as 0) | ||||
|  --------------------------------------------------------------- | ||||
|  100(high) to 139(low)     user nice -20(high) to 19(low) | ||||
|  --------------------------------------------------------------- | ||||
|  140                       idle task priority | ||||
|  --------------------------------------------------------------- | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| The task states are: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|  R - running : wants to run, may not actually be running | ||||
|  S - sleep   : process is waiting to be woken up (handles signals) | ||||
|  D - disk sleep (uninterruptible sleep) : process must be woken up | ||||
| 					(ignores signals) | ||||
|  T - stopped : process suspended | ||||
|  t - traced  : process is being traced (with something like gdb) | ||||
|  Z - zombie  : process waiting to be cleaned up | ||||
|  X - unknown | ||||
