[PATCH 4/8] ftrace: Remove FTRACE_FL_FAILED flag

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Sat Apr 30 2011 - 11:33:38 EST


From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@xxxxxxxxxx>

Since we disable all function tracer processing if we detect
that a modification of a instruction had failed, we do not need
to track that the record has failed. No more ftrace processing
is allowed, and the FTRACE_FL_FAILED flag is pointless.

Removing this flag simplifies some of the code, but some ftrace_disabled
checks needed to be added or move around a little.
