[PATCH 1/3] tracing: Reduce overhead of module tracepoints

[Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com>]

Remove the @refcnt argument, because it has side-effects, and
arguments with side-effects are not skipped by the jump over
disabled instrumentation, so it adds overhead even when the
tracepoints are disabled.
