[PATCH v4 1/7] tracing/events: Fix to check the simple_tsk_fn creation

["Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@kernel.org>]

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>

Sashiko pointed that this sample code does not correctly handle the
failure of thread creation because kthread_run() can return -errno.

Check the simple_tsk_fn is correctly initialized (created) or not.

Fixes: 9cfe06f8cd5c ("tracing/events: add trace-events-sample")

 Changes in v4:
   - Fix to remove decrementing counter in error path, since foo_bar_reg() always returns 0.
   - Add a newline to error message.
 Changes in v3:
   - Recover the usage counter.
