[ltt-dev] Please use underscore variable names in macros (to avoid conflicts)

Hi,
The following trivial piece of code will result in corrupt events:
void dump_ackerman_current( int m, int n )
{
trace_mark( ackerman, current, "m %d n %d", m, n );
}
This is because in ust/marker.h line 173 the definition of the
__trace_mark_counter macro uses a temporary named m (which shadows the
original m). It might be a good idea to use underscore variable names
inside these macros to make naming conflicts less likely.
Thanks,
Paul
