Tracepoints are the infrastructure on which trace events are build. tracepoint.c should not include a trace event header: this is an abstraction inversion. I propose we move the extern void syscall_regfunc(void); extern void syscall_unregfunc(void); declarations to include/linux/tracepoint.h instead.
