Subject: [ 40/42] tracing: Fix selftest function recursion accounting

3.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@...hat.com>

commit 05cbbf643b8eea1be21082c53cdb856d1dc6d765 upstream.

The test that checks function recursion does things differently
if the arch does not support all ftrace features. But that really
doesn't make a difference with how the test runs, and either way
the count variable should be 2 at the end.

Currently the test wrongly fails for archs that don't support all
the ftrace features.
