Nope, you've managed to completely kill tracing.

All of this simply completely kills tracing. Worse, the tracepoints get
registered, but their trace_##name functions do nothing, so you can
think that they're there, but they never record data ...

The old way was much better. Can we just let 2.6.24 and the other
ancients die in peace?
