[PATCH v2 0/1] ftrace: add unit test for removing trace function

Hi,

This patch adds a basic startup self-test for removing a traced
function.

Being kallsyms_lookup_name made unexported there is no easy use of
ftrace_set_filter_ip from kernel modules, leaving with ftrace_set_filter
as the way to set trace functions. The ftrace_set_filter API is not
explicit on how to remove trace functions, and there is no such use case
either in the kernel source-tree for which I decided to add an example
of it use as a self-test.

Changes since v1:
- Added changelog and sign-off line.
