	if (packet->recv_wc)
		ret = copy_recv_mad(file, buf, packet, count);
	else
		ret = copy_send_mad(file, buf, packet, count);

Looking at that code, in both cases buf contains the content of packet:

	if (copy_to_user(buf, &packet->mad, hdr_size(file)))
		return -EFAULT;

and the payload.

Why not use the contents of packet and payload?

I would also put in the ret into the tracepoint and make the tracepoint
a TRACE_EVENT_CONDITIONAL() and only record when ret is not negative.

Or just place the tracepoint in the copy_send/recv_mad() functions?
