Hmm, the above could probably be simplified as:

ret = register_trace_fprobe(tf);
if (ret) {
trace_probe_log_set_index(1);
if (ret == -EILSEQ)
trace_probe_log_err(0, BAD_INSN_BNDRY);
else if (ret == -ENOENT)
trace_probe_log_err(0, BAD_PROBE_ADDR);
else if (ret != -ENOMEM && ret != -EEXIST)
trace_probe_log_err(0, FAIL_REG_PROBE);
return -EINVAL;
}

/* 'tf' is successfully registered. To avoid freeing, assign NULL. */
tf = NULL;

return 0;
}
