tracing: Use EVENT_NULL_STR macro instead of open coding "(null)"
The TRACE_EVENT macros has some dependency if a __string() field is NULL, where it will save "(null)" as the string. This string is also used by __assign_str(). It's better to create a single macro instead of having something that will not be caught by the compiler if there is an unfortunate typo.
