Since the notrace hash is not updated atomically (it is disabled ->
updated -> enabled), there could be a small window where only filter
hash is enabled. I considered that.

OK, anyway, at least this flag can easily be changed. :)

Agreed. Hmm, it seems that we currently have no document about ftrace_ops.
This is a kind of undocumented kmodule API. At least we need to add a comment
on the header.

Ah, I see. I'll change that.

Yeah, I guess that SAVE_REGS flag has same issue. And, of course
kprobe->flags has same. I think we just need comments or a document
for the ftrace_ops API.

OK, I'll fix that.

Yes, here we do so. :)
