tracing: tprobe-events: Fix leakage of module refcount

Browse Source 
commit ac91052f0a upstream.

When enabling the tracepoint at loading module, the target module
refcount is incremented by find_tracepoint_in_module(). But it is
unnecessary because the module is not unloaded while processing
module loading callbacks.
Moreover, the refcount is not decremented in that function.
To be clear the module refcount handling, move the try_module_get()
callsite to trace_fprobe_create_internal(), where it is actually
required.
