Note, it's probably best to include the above after all the other
headers. The CREATE_TRACE_POINTS might cause issues if a header has
other trace event headers included.

I wonder if we should make this a RAW_SPINLOCK(). That way it wont
cause any issues on PREEMPT_RT if a bpf trace event is called within
other raw spinlocks.

If you just keep it enabled, it may be best to always call this. It
doesn't hurt if you call it when it is already enabled.

This is because if someone were to disable the bpf_trace_printk via
tracefs, and then load another bpf program with another
bpf_trace_printk in it, that program wont re-enable the
bpf_trace_printk trace event again do to this check.

The rest looks fine to me.
