So we actually add a trace_seq_reset here.
This should have been in the first patch, which drops
the memset, and eventually modified here, just to avoid
breaking things in the middle of a patchset.

Things were already broken though before the memset dropping
patch though in other ways, so it's not that important I guess...


The patch looks good.
