[RFC][PATCH 5/8] ftrace: Do not display non safe RCU functions inavailable_filter_functions

[Steven Rostedt]

From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

As available_filter_functions file displays functions that are generally
available for tracing, do not show the ones that are RCU unsafe. Otherwise
it may be confusing for perf users to see these functions in this file but
not be able to trace them.
