[18/19] ftrace: add ftrace_enabled sysctl to disable mcountfunction

From: Ingo Molnar
Date: Sun Feb 10 2008 - 02:28:04 EST


From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch adds back the sysctl ftrace_enabled. This time it is
defaulted to on, if DYNAMIC_FTRACE is configured. When ftrace_enabled
is disabled, the ftrace function is set to the stub return.

If DYNAMIC_FTRACE is also configured, on ftrace_enabled = 0,
the registered ftrace functions will all be set to jmps, but no more
new calls to ftrace recording (used to find the ftrace calling sites)
will be called.
