The tracing_open_file_tr() function currently copies the trace_event_file
pointer from inode->i_private to file->private_data when the file is
successfully opened. This duplication is not particularly useful, as all
event code should utilize event_file_file() or event_file_data() to
retrieve a trace_event_file pointer from a file struct and these access
functions read file->f_inode->i_private. Moreover, this setup requires the
code for opening hist files to explicitly clear file->private_data before
calling single_open(), since this function expects the private_data member
to be set to NULL and uses it to store a pointer to a seq_file.
Remove the unnecessary setting of file->private_data in
tracing_open_file_tr() and simplify the hist code.
