ftrace: Fix perf-tracepoint OOPS

Not all tracepoints are created equal, in specific the ftrace
tracepoints are created with TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT() which does
not generate the needed bits to tie them into perf counters.

For those events, don't create the 'id' file and fail
->profile_enable when their ID is specified through other
means.
