Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Fix issue of missing one synthetic field

The maximum number of synthetic fields supported is defined as
SYNTH_FIELDS_MAX which value currently is 64, but it actually fails
when try to generate a synthetic event with 64 fields by executing like:

  # echo "my_synth_event int v1; int v2; int v3; int v4; int v5; int v6;\
   int v7; int v8; int v9; int v10; int v11; int v12; int v13; int v14;\
   int v15; int v16; int v17; int v18; int v19; int v20; int v21; int v22;\
   int v23; int v24; int v25; int v26; int v27; int v28; int v29; int v30;\
   int v31; int v32; int v33; int v34; int v35; int v36; int v37; int v38;\
   int v39; int v40; int v41; int v42; int v43; int v44; int v45; int v46;\
   int v47; int v48; int v49; int v50; int v51; int v52; int v53; int v54;\
   int v55; int v56; int v57; int v58; int v59; int v60; int v61; int v62;\
   int v63; int v64" >> /sys/kernel/tracing/synthetic_events

Correct the field counting to fix it.
