 *
 * The trace_seq is a handy tool that allows you to pass a descriptor around
 * to a buffer that other functions can write to. It is similar to the
 * seq_file functionality but has some differences.
 *
 * To use it, the trace_seq must be initialized with trace_seq_init().
 * This will set up the counters within the descriptor. You can call
 * trace_seq_init() more than once to reset the trace_seq to start
 * from scratch.
 * 
 * A write to the buffer will either succeed or fail. That is, unlike
 * sprintf() there will not be a partial write (well it may write into
 * the buffer but it wont update the pointers). This allows users to
 * try to write something into the trace_seq buffer and if it fails
 * they can flush it and try again.
 *
