This problem is fallout of the 'tracing: Fix histogram code when
expression has same var as value' fix, which because now that the
var_ref_vals var ref positions are unique, breaks the assumption that
the trace action params are all in a row at the end. So in this case,
they're one off and so the values are skewed by one position.
The patch below fixes the problem for me and passes all the ftrace
tests.

[PATCH] tracing: Fix now invalid var_ref_vals assumption in trace action
The patch 'tracing: Fix histogram code when expression has same var as
value' added code to return an existing variable reference when
creating a new variable reference, which resulted in var_ref_vals
slots being reused instead of being duplicated.
The implementation of the trace action assumes that the end of the
var_ref_vals array starting at action_data.var_ref_idx corresponds to
the values that will be assigned to the trace params. The patch
mentioned above invalidates that assumption, which means that each
param needs to explicitly specify its index into var_ref_vals.
This fix changes action_data.var_ref_idx to an array of var ref
indexes to account for that.
