    sched/events: Revert trace_sched_stat_sleeptime() · 8c79a045

    Commit 1ac9bc69 ("sched/tracing: Add a new tracepoint for sleeptime")
    added a new sched:sched_stat_sleeptime tracepoint.
    
    It's broken: the first sample we get on a task might be bad because
    of a stale sleep_start value that wasn't reset at the last task switch
    because the tracepoint was not active.
    
    It also breaks the existing schedstat samples due to the side
    effects of:
    
    -               se->statistics.sleep_start = 0;
    ...
    -               se->statistics.block_start = 0;
    
    Nor do I see means to fix it without adding overhead to the scheduler
    fast path, which I'm not willing to for the sake of redundant
    instrumentation.
    
    Most importantly, sleep time information can already be constructed
    by tracing context switches and wakeups, and taking the timestamp
    difference between the schedule-out, the wakeup and the schedule-in.
