Pull ring-buffer fix from Steven Rostedt:

- Make undefsyms_base.c into a real file

The file undefsyms_base.c is used to catch any symbols used by a
remote ring buffer that is made for use of a pKVM hypervisor. As it
doesn't share the same text as the rest of the kernel, referencing
any symbols within the kernel will make it fail to be built for the
standalone hypervisor.

A file was created by the Makefile that checked for any symbols that
could cause issues. There's no reason to have this file created by
the Makefile, just create it as a normal file instead.

tracing: Make undefsyms_base.c a first-class citizen

Linus points out that dumping undefsyms_base.c form the Makefile
is rather ugly, and that a much better course of action would be
to have this file as a first-class citizen in the git tree.

This allows some extra cleanup in the Makefile, and the removal of
the .gitignore file in kernel/trace.
