From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" When a event PADDING is hit (a deleted event that is still in the ring buffer), translate_data() sets the length of the padding and also updates the data pointer which is passed back to the caller. This is unneeded because the caller also updates the data pointer with the passed back length. translate_data() should not update the pointer, only set the length.
