[PATCH] ftrace: fix traceoff_on_warning handling on boot command line

[Luis Claudio R. Goncalves]

Steven,

While backporting traceoff_on_warning to 3.10.33-rt we noticed a slightly
difference between what was stated on Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt
and the actual code.

Please consider the following patch for inclusion.

Best regards,
Luis

ftrace: fix traceoff_on_warning handling on boot command line

According to the documentation, adding "traceoff_on_warning" to the boot
command line should be enough to enable the feature. But right now it is
necessary to specify "traceoff_on_warning=". Along with fixing that, also
verify if the value passed, if any, is either "0" or "off".
