Subject: [for-next][PATCH 08/11] tracing: Add WARN_ON_ONCE when returned value is negative

From: Hyeonggon Yoo <42.hyeyoo@...il.com>

ret is assigned return value of event_hist_trigger_func, but the value
is unused. It is better to warn when returned value is negative,
rather than just ignoring it.
