tracing/probes: Limit size of event probe to 3K
There currently isn't a max limit an event probe can be. One could make an
event greater than PAGE_SIZE, which makes the event useless because if
it's bigger than the max event that can be recorded into the ring buffer,
then it will never be recorded.
A event probe should never need to be greater than 3K, so make that the
max size. As long as the max is less than the max that can be recorded
onto the ring buffer, it should be fine.
