This discussion is interesting but out of scope for rte_trace.
I am also interested in rte_log registration cleanup,
but I know it is too much work for the last weeks of 20.05.

As Olivier said about rte_trace,
"Since it's a new API, it makes sense to make
it as good as possible for the first version."

So please let's conclude on this rte_trace patch for 20.05-rc2,
and commit to fix rte_log registration in the first days of 20.08.
