To hide the first dummy 'data' argument on the tracepoint probe events,
the BTF argument array was modified (skip the first argument for tracepoint),
but the '$arg*' meta argument parser missed that.

Fix to increment the argument index if it is tracepoint probe. And decrement
the index when searching the type of the argument.

I failed to apply this patch.
Would you mind to rebase this patch?
