tracing: Remove comparing of NULL to va_list in trace_array_vprintk()

Browse Source 
Olof Johansson stated the following:

  Comparing a va_list with NULL is bogus. It's supposed to be treated like
  an opaque type and only be manipulated with va_* accessors.

Olof noticed that this code broke the ARM builds:

    kernel/trace/trace.c: In function 'trace_array_vprintk':
    kernel/trace/trace.c:1364: error: invalid operands to binary == (have 'va_list' and 'void *')
    kernel/trace/trace.c: In function 'tracing_mark_write':
    kernel/trace/trace.c:3349: error: incompatible type for argument 3 of 'trace_vprintk'

This patch partly reverts c13d2f7c32 and
re-installs the original mark_printk() mechanism.
