tracing/treewide: Remove second parameter of __assign_str()

With the rework of how the __string() handles dynamic strings where it
saves off the source string in field in the helper structure[1], the
assignment of that value to the trace event field is stored in the helper
value and does not need to be passed in again.

This means that with:

__string(field, mystring)

Which use to be assigned with __assign_str(field, mystring), no longer
needs the second parameter and it is unused. With this, __assign_str()
will now only get a single parameter.

There's over 700 users of __assign_str() and because coccinelle does not
handle the TRACE_EVENT() macro I ended up using the following sed script:

git grep -l __assign_str | while read a ; do
sed -e 's/\(__assign_str([^,]*[^ ,]\) *,[^;]*/\1)/' $a > /tmp/test-file;
mv /tmp/test-file $a;
done

I then searched for __assign_str() that did not end with ';' as those
were multi line assignments that the sed script above would fail to catch.

Note, the same updates will need to be done for:

__assign_str_len()
__assign_rel_str()
__assign_rel_str_len()

I tested this with both an allmodconfig and an allyesconfig (build only for both).

  *         To assign a string, use the helper macro __assign_str().
  *
- *         __assign_str(foo, bar);
+ *         __assign_str(foo);
  *
- *         In most cases, the __assign_str() macro will take the same
- *         parameters as the __string() macro had to declare the string.
+ *	   The __string() macro saves off the string that is passed into
+ *         the second parameter, and the __assign_str() will store than
+ *         saved string into the "foo" field.
  *
  *   __vstring: This is similar to __string() but instead of taking a
  *         dynamic length, it takes a variable list va_list 'va' variable.
···
  *         The length is saved via the __string_len() and is retrieved in
  *         __assign_str().
  *
- *         __assign_str(foo, bar);
+ *         __assign_str(foo);
  *
  *         Then len + 1 is allocated to the ring buffer, and a nul terminating
  *         byte is added. This is similar to:
