tracing: Clean up access to trace_event_file from a file pointer

The tracing code provides two functions event_file_file() and
event_file_data() to obtain a trace_event_file pointer from a file struct.
The primary method to use is event_file_file(), as it checks for the
EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED flag to determine whether the event is being removed.
The second function event_file_data() is an optimization for retrieving the
same data when the event_mutex is still held.

In the past, when removing an event directory in remove_event_file_dir(),
the code set i_private to NULL for all event files and readers were
expected to check for this state to recognize that the event is being
removed. In the case of event_id_read(), the value was read using
event_file_data() without acquiring the event_mutex. This required
event_file_data() to use READ_ONCE() when retrieving the i_private data.

With the introduction of eventfs, i_private is assigned when an eventfs
inode is allocated and remains set throughout its lifetime.

Remove the now unnecessary READ_ONCE() access to i_private in both
event_file_file() and event_file_data(). Inline the access to i_private in
remove_event_file_dir(), which allows event_file_data() to handle i_private
solely as a trace_event_file pointer. Add a check in event_file_data() to
ensure that the event_mutex is held and that file->flags doesn't have the
EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED flag set. Finally, move event_file_data() immediately
after event_file_code() since the latter provides a comment explaining how
both functions should be used together.
