Treat the events directory the same as other directories when it comes to
permissions. The events directory was considered different because it's
dentry is persistent, whereas the other directory dentries are created
when accessed. But the way tracefs now does its ownership by using the
root dentry's permissions as the default permissions, the events directory
can get out of sync when a remount is performed setting the group and user
permissions.
Remove the special case for the events directory on setting the
attributes. This allows the updates caused by remount to work properly as
well as simplifies the code.

If the instances directory's permissions were never change, then have it
and its children use the mount point permissions as the default.
Currently, the permissions of instance directories are determined by the
instance directory's permissions itself. But if the tracefs file system is
remounted and changes the permissions, the instance directory and its
children should use the new permission.
But because both the instance directory and its children use the instance
directory's inode for permissions, it misses the update.
To demonstrate this:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
# mkdir instances/foo
# ls -ld instances/foo
drwxr-x--- 5 root root 0 May 1 19:07 instances/foo
# ls -ld instances
drwxr-x--- 3 root root 0 May 1 18:57 instances
# ls -ld current_tracer
-rw-r----- 1 root root 0 May 1 18:57 current_tracer
# mount -o remount,gid=1002 .
# ls -ld instances
drwxr-x--- 3 root root 0 May 1 18:57 instances
# ls -ld instances/foo/
drwxr-x--- 5 root root 0 May 1 19:07 instances/foo/
# ls -ld current_tracer
-rw-r----- 1 root lkp 0 May 1 18:57 current_tracer
Notice that changing the group id to that of "lkp" did not affect the
instances directory nor its children. It should have been:
# ls -ld current_tracer
-rw-r----- 1 root root 0 May 1 19:19 current_tracer
# ls -ld instances/foo/
drwxr-x--- 5 root root 0 May 1 19:25 instances/foo/
# ls -ld instances
drwxr-x--- 3 root root 0 May 1 19:19 instances
# mount -o remount,gid=1002 .
# ls -ld current_tracer
-rw-r----- 1 root lkp 0 May 1 19:19 current_tracer
# ls -ld instances
drwxr-x--- 3 root lkp 0 May 1 19:19 instances
# ls -ld instances/foo/
drwxr-x--- 5 root lkp 0 May 1 19:25 instances/foo/
Where all files were updated by the remount gid update.
