Subject: [PATCH 4.13 076/109] ftrace: Fix memleak when unregistering dynamic ops when tracing disabled

4.13-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@...dmis.org>

commit edb096e00724f02db5f6ec7900f3bbd465c6c76f upstream.

If function tracing is disabled by the user via the function-trace option or
the proc sysctl file, and a ftrace_ops that was allocated on the heap is
unregistered, then the shutdown code exits out without doing the proper
clean up. This was found via kmemleak and running the ftrace selftests, as
one of the tests unregisters with function tracing disabled.
