This states what you are doing, but not why you are doing it.

The subject of a commit should be the what, and the body should explain
the why.

And the subject is confusing because you are not "adding tracefs", it
should state:

   tracing/kprobes: Add method to display private kprobes in tracefs

Or something like that.
