Because of the macro magic, and really try not to have trace events
defined in any headers. Otherwise, we have weird defines like you are
doing, and it doesn't fully protect it if a C file adds this header and
defines CREATE_TRACE_POINTS first.

Instead of having sched.h define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS, I would have the
following:

if (trace_sched_update_nr_running_tp_enabled()) {
call_trace_sched_update_nr_runnig(rq, count);
}

Then in sched/core.c:

void trace_sched_update_nr_running(struct rq *rq, int count)
{
trace_sched_update_nr_running_tp(cpu_of(rq), count, rq->nr_running);
}

The trace_*_enabled() above uses static branches, where the if turns to
a nop (pass through) when disabled and a jmp when enabled (same logic
that trace points use themselves).

Then you don't need this macro dance, and risk having another C file
define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS and spend hours debugging why it suddenly
broke.
