trace_kprobes: Fix a memory leak bug and check kstrdup() return value

Fix a memory leak case in create_trace_probe(). When an argument
is too long (> MAX_ARGSTR_LEN), it just jumps to error path. In
that case tp->args[i].name is not released.
This also fixes a bug to check kstrdup()'s return value.
