[ Upstream commit c89504a703fb779052213add0e8ed642f4a4f1c8 ]

Several places in the trace.c file there's a goto out where the out is
simply a return. There's no reason to jump to the out label if it's not
doing any more logic but simply returning from the function.

Replace the goto outs with a return and remove the out labels.
