Hello, Kosaki-san

Now lttng trace only sys_socket_call for sys_socket, sys_bind and others.
But on some arch(for ex, ia64) which lacks of sys_socket_call, we can't get those
syscall traced.

This patch add separate socketcall tracers to sys_socket, sys_bind, etc.
So people who using ia64 can trace each socket calls.

Do you agree it?

I'll add some explain to comment and send a v2 patch.

Regards
Zhaolei
