perf trace: avoid garbage when not printing a trace event's arguments

Browse Source 
[ Upstream commit 5fb8e56542 ]

trace__fprintf_tp_fields may not print any tracepoint arguments. E.g., if the
argument values are all zero. Previously, this would result in a totally
uninitialized buffer being passed to fprintf, which could lead to garbage on the
console. Fix the problem by passing the number of initialized bytes fprintf.
