Steven Rostedt 07c3f391bc tracing: Remove EVENT_FILE_FL_SOFT_MODE flag
When soft disabling of trace events was first created, it needed to have a
way to know if a file had a user that was using it with soft disabled (for
triggers that need to enable or disable events from a context that can not
really enable or disable the event, it would set SOFT_DISABLED to state it
is disabled). The flag SOFT_MODE was used to denote that an event had a
user that would enable or disable it via the SOFT_DISABLED flag.

Commit 1cf4c0732d ("tracing: Modify soft-mode only if there's no other
referrer") fixed a bug where if two users were using the SOFT_DISABLED
flag the accounting would get messed up as the SOFT_MODE flag could only
handle one user. That commit added the sm_ref counter which kept track of
how many users were using the event in "soft mode". This made the
SOFT_MODE flag redundant as it should only be set if the sm_ref counter is
non zero.

Remove the SOFT_MODE flag and just use the sm_ref counter to know the
event is in soft mode or not. This makes the code a bit simpler.
