[PATCH 1/8][RFC] ftrace: Fix global function tracers that are not recursion safe

2012-11-15 Thread Steven Rostedt
From: Steven Rostedt 

If one of the function tracers set by the global ops is not recursion
safe, it can still be called directly without the added recursion
supplied by the ftrace infrastructure.
