Shouldn't this take a markers_mutex ?

Hrm, I did not notice it, but marker_info_read, as it is currently
implemented in LTTng, should take lock_markers() before iterating on the
markers. Can you provide a separate patch that fixes this ? (I don't
want to work under your feet...)

The same should be done for build_marker_control_files() and
remove_marker_control_dir().

The rest looks good. I look forward to see V3.

Thanks !
