The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing.

But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst:

  Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs
  file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
  For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system,
  the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at:

  /sys/kernel/debug/tracing

Many comments and Kconfig help messages in the tracing code still refer
to this older debugfs path, so let's update them to avoid confusion.

In a previous commit, Ubuntu kernel code version is correctly set
by retrieving the information from /proc/version_signature.

commit<5b3d7298>
(libbpf: Improve LINUX_VERSION_CODE detection)

The /proc/version_signature file doesn't present in at least the
older versions of Debian distributions (eg, Debian 9, 10). The Debian
kernel has a similar issue where the release information from uname()
syscall doesn't give the kernel code version that matches what the
kernel actually expects. Below is an example content from Debian 10.

release: 4.19.0-23-amd64
version: #1 SMP Debian 4.19.269-1 (2022-12-20) x86_64

Debian reports incorrect kernel version in utsname::release returned
by uname() syscall, which in older kernels (Debian 9, 10) leads to
kprobe BPF programs failing to load due to the version check mismatch.

Fortunately, the correct kernel code version presents in the
utsname::version returned by uname() syscall in Debian kernels. This
change adds another get kernel version function to handle Debian in
addition to the previously added get kernel version function to handle
Ubuntu. Some minor refactoring work is also done to make the code more
readable.

The reason is that, even though the C code enforces that

to stack after comparison.

This patch adds generic macro machinery to support up to 8 arguments

Also, for i386 architecture we now don't have to define fake PARM4 and
