This doesn't make sense. If you want to trace something, trace
i2c_transfer(). i2c_master_send() and i2c_master_recv() are only helpers
for the most simple cases, so tracing only them is pointless.

Note that even with this, you'll miss calls to i2c_smbus_xfer(), which
is the other access point to I2C/SMBus controllers. So I guess you want
to trace it as well.
