One minor nit: can you use key=value (i.e. "throttled=%d") instead for
consistency with the rest of this file?

Other than that, I know that Peter suggested an enum for the action,
but wouldn't it be better to create an EVENT_CLASS and subclass the
three actions from it?  Something like:

DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS(sched_cfs_idle_inject_template,

	TP_PROTO(int throttled),

	TP_ARGS(throttled),

	TP_STRUCT__entry(
		__field(int, throttled)
	),

	TP_fast_assign(
		__entry->throttled = throttled;
	),

	TP_printk("throttled=%d", __entry->throttled)
);

DEFINE_EVENT(sched_cfs_idle_inject_template, sched_cfs_idle_inject_timer,
	     TP_PROTO(int throttled),
	     TP_ARGS(throttled));

DEFINE_EVENT(sched_cfs_idle_inject_template, sched_cfs_idle_inject_forced,
	     TP_PROTO(int throttled),
	     TP_ARGS(throttled));

DEFINE_EVENT(sched_cfs_idle_inject_template,
	     sched_cfs_idle_inject_yield_softirq,
	     TP_PROTO(int throttled),
	     TP_ARGS(throttled));

This becomes:

			trace_sched_cfs_idle_inject_yield_softirq(1);

This becomes:

and this would be:

	trace_sched_cfs_idle_inject_timer(!status);
