Remove conditional locking by moving the __DO_TRACE() code into
trace_##name().

When the faultable syscall tracepoints were implemented, __DO_TRACE()
had a rcuidle argument which selected between SRCU and preempt disable.
Therefore, the RCU tasks trace protection for faultable syscall
tracepoints was introduced using the same pattern.

At that point, it did not appear obvious that this feedback from Linus [1]
applied here as well, because the __DO_TRACE() modification was
extending a pre-existing pattern.

Shortly before pulling the faultable syscall tracepoints modifications,
Steven removed the rcuidle argument and SRCU protection scheme entirely
from tracepoint.h:

commit 48bcda684823 ("tracing: Remove definition of trace_*_rcuidle()")

This required a rebase of the faultable syscall tracepoints series,
which missed a perfect opportunity to integrate the prior recommendation
from Linus.

In response to the pull request, Linus pointed out [2] that he was not
pleased by the implementation, expecting this to be fixed in a follow up
patch series.

Move __DO_TRACE() code into trace_##name() within each of
__DECLARE_TRACE() and __DECLARE_TRACE_SYSCALL(). Use a scoped guard
to guard the preempt disable notrace and RCU tasks trace critical
sections.
