It is still checked via the trace_check_vprintf() function to make sure the pointers of the trace event are legit. The addition of reading buffers from previous boots required adding a delta between the addresses of the previous boot and the current boot so that the pointers in the old buffer can still be used. But this required adding a trace_array pointer to acquire the delta offsets. The tp_printk code does not provide a trace_array (tr) pointer, so when the offsets were examined, a NULL pointer dereference happened and the kernel crashed. If the trace_array does not exist, just default the delta offsets to zero, as that also means the trace event is not being read from a previous boot.
