Willing to do that instead?
Honestly, what you described was my preferred solution ;-)

I just didn't want to upset the lockdown crowd if a new tracefs file
was opened without doing this.
Well, since they introduced a bug in your code that killed your
machine with the patch _they_ did, I don't think they get to complain
when you fix it the way you (and me) want to...

Fair is fair.
