tracing: Fix setting tracer specific options

The function __set_tracer_option() takes as its last parameter a
"neg" value. If set it should negate the value of the option.

The trace_options_write() passed the value written to the file
which is what the new value needs to be set as. But since this
is not the negative, it never sets the value.
