Subject: [PATCH 2/4] tracing/ftrace: Change the type of the init() callback

Impact: Handle errors during initialization of a tracer

This bring a way to know if the initialization of a tracer successed.
A tracer must return 0 on success and a traditional error (ie: -ENOMEM)
if it fails.
If a tracer fails to init, it is free to print a detailed warn. The tracing
api will not and switch to a new tracer will just return the error from the init
callback.

Note: this will be used for the return tracer.
