Oh, you right.
since there is no tracepoint user who uses private_data,
we can remove it.

If you need it, I think you can introduce some macros like below.

#define TPPROTO(args...) (void *private_data, args)

#define __define_trace_register(name, proto) \ /*shared by DEFINE_TRACE/DEFINE_TRACE_NOARG*/
	static inline int register_trace_##name(\
		void (*probe)proto,		\
		void *private_data)		\
	{								\
		return tracepoint_probe_register(#name ":" #proto,	\
			(void *)probe, private_data);			\
	}								\
	static inline void unregister_trace_##name(			\
		void (*probe)proto,		\
		void *private_data)					\
	{								\
		tracepoint_probe_unregister(#name ":" #proto,		\
			(void *)probe, private_data);			\
	}

#define DEFINE_TRACE_NOARG(name) \
 static inline void _do_trace_##name(struct tracepoint *tp) \
 ...
 static inline void trace_##name(void)			\
 ...
 __define_trace_register(name, (void *private_data))


But I think removing private_data is better...

Thank you,
