[linux-yocto] [PATCH 0/3] enable ftrace for mips

[Tom Zanussi]

This patchset enables ftrace for mips, but disables the ftrace function
tracer (and dynamic ftrace).  We want the basic tracing framework that
FTRACE enables so that e.g. TRACEPOINTS are there and lttng can work:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5215

It adds a new ftrace-function-tracer-disable feature and removes the
existing ftrace-disable feature, since that's a better description of
what it does, and makes the mips machines use it.

I verified that qemumips boots with these patches, and also did an lttng
kernel trace to verify that lttng works as expected (and of course the
lttng-modules build warnings are gone as well.

I also verified that FTRACE_FUNCTION_TRACER is the culprit causing mips
to hang - adding and removing that toggles boot hangs.
