Subject: WARNING at __ftrace_hash_rec_update()

On v3.1-7810-g094803e (current linus git), I'm able to trigger the below
FTRACE_WARN_ON() by running the following sequence of commands.
DYNAMIC_FTRACE is enabled.

ftrace.c:1384:
	if (FTRACE_WARN_ON((rec->flags & ~FTRACE_FL_MASK) == 0))
		return;
	rec->flags--;

$ mount -t debugfs nodev /debug
$ cd /debug/tracing/
$ echo 0 > tracing_on 
$ echo function > current_tracer 
$ echo > set_ftrace_filter 
$ echo 1 > tracing_on 
$ cat trace
