Subject: [PATCH] ftrace: add kernel command line graph function filtering

Add a command line parameter to allow limiting the function graphs that
are traced on boot up, when ftrace=function_graph is specified.

This patch adds the following command line option:
ftrace_graph_filter=function-list

Where function-list is a comma separated list of functions to filter.
