ftrace: Add subops logic to allow one ops to manage many
There are cases where a single system will use a single function callback to handle multiple users. For example, to allow function_graph tracer to have multiple users where each can trace their own set of functions, it is useful to only have one ftrace_ops registered to ftrace that will call a function by the function_graph tracer to handle the multiplexing with the different registered function_graph tracers. Add a "subop_list" to the ftrace_ops that will hold a list of other ftrace_ops that the top ftrace_ops will manage. The function ftrace_startup_subops() that takes the manager ftrace_ops and a subop ftrace_ops it will manage. If there are no subops with the ftrace_ops yet, it will copy the ftrace_ops subop filters to the manager ftrace_ops and register that with ftrace_startup(), and adds the subop to its subop_list. If the manager ops already has something registered, it will then merge the new subop filters with what it has and enable the new functions that covers all the subops it has. To remove a subop, ftrace_shutdown_subops() is called which will use the subop_list of the manager ops to rebuild all the functions it needs to trace, and update the ftrace records to only call the functions it now has registered. If there are no more functions registered, it will then call ftrace_shutdown() to disable itself completely. Note, it is up to the manager ops callback to always make sure that the subops callbacks are called if its filter matches, as there are times in the update where the callback could be calling more functions than those that are currently registered. This could be updated to handle other systems other than function_graph, for example, fprobes could use this (but will need an interface to call ftrace_startup_subops()).
