Actually, since "entry" is a part of "event" which may be already discarded,
I think we should not access it here. It may not cause real problem because
even if it is discarded, that does NOT mean it is freed. However, it depends
on the ring-buffer implementation.

I recommend you to call event triggers before commit the event. It will also
make the code simpler :)

Same changes are needed here.
