Subject: [PATCH] tracing: move static old_tracer to trace_iterator
static old_tracer is global for all processes.
So there is a potential bug when:
current_trace and static old_tracer are changed by other processes,
current_trace and static old_tracer are match with each other.
but *iter->trace and *current_trace are not match.
This patch move old_tracer to trace_iterator, and make it not global.
