You lost me on the halfway part.

So you want a separate patch that removes the code for an incomplete
feature -- which means changing the references to the functions in that
patch? The intent being a patch that can be reverted later?

What about the cpu argument which was only kept in print_trace_event to
avoid the removal of more code? Leave it and the additional code or take
it out?
