[PATCH] tracing: Fix cmp_entries_dup() to respect sort() comparison rules

[Kuan-Wei Chiu]

The cmp_entries_dup() function used as the comparator for sort()
violated the symmetry and transitivity properties required by the
sorting algorithm. Specifically, it returned 1 whenever memcmp() was
non-zero, which broke the following expectations:

* Symmetry: If x < y, then y > x.
* Transitivity: If x < y and y < z, then x < z.

These violations could lead to incorrect sorting and failure to
correctly identify duplicate elements.

Fix the issue by directly returning the result of memcmp(), which
adheres to the required comparison properties.
