Now that we have two mountpoints, one for debugfs and another, for
tracefs, we end up needing to check permissions for both, so, on
a system with default config we were always asking the user to
check the permission of the debugfs mountpoint, even when it was
already sufficient. Fix it.
E.g.:
$ trace -e nanosleep usleep 1
Error: No permissions to read /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_(enter|exit)
Hint: Try 'sudo mount -o remount,mode=755 /sys/kernel/debug'
$ sudo mount -o remount,mode=755 /sys/kernel/debug
$ trace -e nanosleep usleep 1
Error: No permissions to read /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_(enter|exit)
Hint: Try 'sudo mount -o remount,mode=755 /sys/kernel/debug/tracing'
$ sudo mount -o remount,mode=755 /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
$ trace -e nanosleep usleep 1
0.326 ( 0.061 ms): usleep/11961 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffef1081c50) = 0

It's rather strange to be checking the debugfs MAGIC number for the
tracing directory. A system admin may want to have a custom set of
events to trace and it should be allowed to let the admin make a temp
file (even for tracing virtual boxes, this is useful).
Also with the coming tracefs, the files may not even be under debugfs,
so checking the debugfs MAGIC number is pointless.

The array debugfs_known_mountpoints[] will cause extra '/'
character output.
Remove it.

please rebuild kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS.

Move debugfs.* to api/fs/. We have a common tools/lib/api/ place where
the Makefile lives and then we place the headers in subdirs.
For example, all the fs-related stuff goes to tools/lib/api/fs/ from
which we get libapikfs.a (acme got almost the naming he wanted :-)) and
we link it into the tools which need it - in this case perf and
tools/vm/page-types.
acme:
"Looking at the implementation, I think some tools can even link
directly to the .o files, avoiding the .a file altogether.
But that is just an optimization/finer granularity tools/lib/
cherrypicking that toolers can make use of."
Fixup documentation cleaning target while at it.
