    tracing: Have trace_event_update_all() only handle module that is loading
    
    The function trace_event_update_all() does a scan of events looking to
    replace enums with their values in the strings that get exported to the
    event format files. It's run at boot up on all events and again when a
    module loads.
    
    The issue is that when a module loads, it still runs on *all* events.
    There's no reason to process every event when a module loads as the
    previous events have already been processed. Only execute on the events
    that are loaded with the module.
