[PATCH v2 1/2] ftrace: Provide API to use global filtering for ftrace ops

[Joel Fernandes]

Currently the global_ops filtering hash is not available to outside
users registering for function tracing. Provide an API for those
users to be able to choose global filtering.

This is in preparation for pstore's ftrace feature to be able to
use the global filters.

v2 changes: don't set global filter if ops were initialized before.
