Good question! Of course if given event_call is not a kprobe event,
it doesn't have primary (or any) trace_probe. But that must not happen
unless user misuses it.
And that list never be the empty, when the last trace probe is released,
the event_call also unregistered and released. See unregister_trace_kprobe()
for details. If there is no siblings on the list, the event_call is also
unregistered before unregistering kprobes, and after unregistering kprobes
the list is unlinked.
 (Note that unregister_kprobe() will wait a quiescence period
before return. This means all probe handlers are done before that.)

Oops, good catch!
This part is related to caller (ftrace/perf) so should be more careful.
Usually, kprobe enablement should not fail. If one of them has
gone (like a probe on unloaded module), it can be fail but that
should be ignored. I would like to add some additional check so that
- If all kprobes are on the module which is unloaded, enablement
  must be failed and return error.
- If any kprobe is enabled, and others are on non-exist modules,
  it should succeeded and return OK.
- If any kprobe caused an error not because of unloaded module,
  all other enablement should be canceled and return error.

Is that OK for you?
