ftrace: add ftrace_enabled sysctl to disable mcount function
This patch adds back the sysctl ftrace_enabled. This time it is defaulted to on, if DYNAMIC_FTRACE is configured. When ftrace_enabled is disabled, the ftrace function is set to the stub return. If DYNAMIC_FTRACE is also configured, on ftrace_enabled = 0, the registered ftrace functions will all be set to jmps, but no more new calls to ftrace recording (used to find the ftrace calling sites) will be called.
