0619faf657 tracing/ftrace: make nop tracer using tracer flags
Impact: give an example on how to use specific tracer flags

This patch propose to use the nop tracer to provide an
example for using the tracer's custom flags implementation.

V2: replace structures and defines just after the headers includes for
    cleanliness.
V3: replace defines by enum values.

1c80025a49 tracing/ftrace: change the type of the init() callback
Impact: extend the ->init() method with the ability to fail

This bring a way to know if the initialization of a tracer successed.
A tracer must return 0 on success and a traditional error (ie:
-ENOMEM) if it fails.

If a tracer fails to init, it is free to print a detailed warn. The
tracing api will not and switch to a new tracer will just return the
error from the init callback.

Note: this will be used for the return tracer.

43a15386c4 tracing/ftrace: replace none tracer by nop tracer
Replace "none" tracer by the recently created "nop" tracer.
Both are pretty similar except that nop accepts TRACE_PRINT
or TRACE_SPECIAL entries.

And as a consequence, changing the size of the ring buffer now
requires that tracing has already been disabled.

35cb5ed012 tracing/ftrace: make nop tracer reset previous entries
If nop tracer is selected, some old entries from the previous tracer
could still be enqueued. Tracing have to be reset.

fb1b6d8b51 ftrace: add nop tracer
A no-op tracer which can serve two purposes:

 1. A template for development of a new tracer.
 2. A convenient way to see ftrace_printk() calls without
    an irrelevant trace making the output messy.
