Steven Rostedt (VMware) 1746fd4416 tracepoints: Remove unnecessary "data_args" macro parameter
While working on a clean up that would restructure the difference between
architectures that have static calls vs those that do not, I was stumbling
over the "data_args" parameter that includes "__data" in the arguments. The
issue was that one version didn't even need it, while the other one did.
Instead of injecting a "__data = NULL;" into the macro for the unneeded
version, just remove it completely.

The original idea behind data_args is that there may be a case of a
tracepoint with no arguments. But this is considered bad practice, and all
tracepoints should pass something to that location (that's what tracepoints
were created for).

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
