trace: fix multiple use of __print_flags and __print_symbolic

[Steven Whitehouse]

When using multiple calls to __print_symbolic and __print_flags in
the same tracer, I noticed that the output was incorrect. I think
the following patch is the correct fix (it works for me) but please
check it carefully since I'm not that familiar with this code,
and I may well have made a mistake somewhere.

The patch is vs. the latest -tip tree which doesn't yet seem to
contain the EXPORT_SYMBOL() fix that I sent earlier.
