Historic reasons, when I first worked on this I found all those WARN_ONs
in blk_register_tracepoints a bogosity that should be later fixed, but
to reduce the patch size I never got around to submit the proper patch,
so I don't think that the fix is what you suggests, here it is what I
had before I removed the non-essential parts of the patch:

+static void blk_tracer_error(const char *name)
+{
+	pr_info("blk trace: Couldn't activate tracepoint "
+		"probe to block_%s\n", name);

+	ret = register_trace_block_##tpoint(blk_add_trace_##tpoint); \
+	if (ret) { 						     \
+		blk_tracer_error(#tpoint);			     \
+		goto *exit_point;		  		     \
+	} else							     \
+		exit_point = &&fail_deprobe_##tpoint;
+	
+
+#define fail_trace_block(tpoint)	\
