tracing: use pointer error returns for __tracing_open
Impact: fix compile warning and clean up
When I first wrote __tracing_open, instead of passing the error
code via the ERR_PTR macros, I lazily used a separate parameter
to hold the return for errors.
When Frederic Weisbecker updated that function, he used the Linux
kernel ERR_PTR for the returns. This caused the parameter return
to possibly not be initialized on error. gcc correctly pointed this
out with a warning.
This patch converts the entire function to use the Linux kernel
ERR_PTR macro methods.
