[PATCH ftrace/core 2/3] trace/kprobes: Avoid self tests if tracing is disabled on boot up

From: Yoshihiro YUNOMAE
Date: Thu Jun 05 2014 - 18:35:31 EST


If tracing is disabled on boot up, the kernel should not execute self tests.
In this patch, the kernel checks whether tracing is disabled or not
before executing self tests.
