It's bit confusing for me update_track_val() calls ->save_val() and it
in turn calls ->check_val(). Why not having wrappers corresponding to
their callback name? - get_track_val(), check_track_val() and
save_trace_val()...

... and then it should look like:
if (check_track_val()) {
save_track_val();
update_save_vars();
}
I also think update_save_vars() also needs to be renamed something
like save_track_vars() or save_trace_data().
