Fix the following kernel-doc warnings:

kernel/trace/trace_kprobe.c:1029: warning: Excess function parameter 'args' description in '__kprobe_event_gen_cmd_start'
kernel/trace/trace_kprobe.c:1097: warning: Excess function parameter 'args' description in '__kprobe_event_add_fields'

Refer to the usage of variable length arguments elsewhere in the kernel
code, "@..." is the proper way to express it in the description.

Fixes: 2a588dd1d5d6 ("tracing: Add kprobe event command generation functions")
Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202310190437.paI6LYJF-lkp@intel.com/

Not related to this patch, but I see order of the argument as well is 
not proper in the document of the __kprobe_event_gen_cmd_start(),
if you can fix that too.

LGTM, Thanks for this.
