Subject: [RFC PATCH 06/10] ftrace: Release the function hlist if we don't need it anymore
After we disable the function profiler, the function hashlist
stays in memory. This is wasteful as nobody needs it anymore,
until the next use if any.
Release it when we disable the function profiler instead of
resetting it in the next use.
