I have to ask, why did you do it this way?

What about doing this right after this probe:

	if (trace_sctp_probe_path_enabled()) {
		struct sctp_transport *sp;

		list_for_each_entry(sp, &asoc->peer.transpor_addr_list,
				    transports) {
			trace_sctp_probe_path(sp, asoc);
		}
	}

The "trace_sctp_probe_path_enabled()" is a static branch, which means
it's a nop just like a tracepoint is, and will not add any overhead if
the trace_sctp_probe_path is not enabled.
