user_events: Add trace event call as root for low permission cases
Tracefs by default is locked down heavily. System operators can open up some files, such as user_events to a broader set of users. These users do not have access within tracefs beyond just the user_event files. Due to this restriction the trace_add_event_call/remove calls will silently fail since the caller does not have permissions to create directories. To fix this trace_add_event_call/remove calls will be issued with override creds of the global root UID. Creds are reverted immediately afterward.
