Subject: [PATCH 1/2] tracing/function: fix the return value of ftrace_trace_onoff_callback()

ftrace_trace_onoff_callback() will return error even if we do the
right operation, for example:

# echo _spin_*:traceon:10 > set_ftrace_filter
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# cat set_ftrace_filter
#### all functions enabled ####
_spin_trylock_bh:traceon:count=10
_spin_unlock_irq:traceon:count=10
_spin_unlock_bh:traceon:count=10
_spin_lock_irq:traceon:count=10
_spin_unlock:traceon:count=10
_spin_trylock:traceon:count=10
_spin_unlock_irqrestore:traceon:count=10
_spin_lock_irqsave:traceon:count=10
_spin_lock_bh:traceon:count=10
_spin_lock:traceon:count=10

We want to set _spin_*:traceon:10 to set_ftrace_filter, it complain
with "Invalid argument", but the operation is successful.
So, this patch fix it.
