Thanks for catching this issue.

Fixes: 89ed42495ef4 ("tracing: Sample module to demonstrate kernel access to Ftrace instances.")

I think we also need to use cancel_work_sync() to handle the case -
1. Module unloaded
2. Timer already ran and scheduled work to disable trace event
3. When the work runs we no longer have the relevant trace array.

static int simple_thread(void *arg)
{
.....

 del_timer(&mytimer);

<cancel_work_sync>
.....
return 0;
}

Thanks,
Divya
