Subject: [PATCH 1/5] tracing: Move setting of tracing_selftest_running out of register_tracer()

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

The variables tracing_selftest_running and tracing_selftest_disabled are
only used for when CONFIG_FTRACE_STARTUP_TEST is enabled. Make them only
visible within the selftest code. The setting of those variables are in
the register_tracer() call, and set in a location where they do not need
to be. Create a wrapper around run_tracer_selftest() called
do_run_tracer_selftest() which sets those variables, and have
register_tracer() call that instead.

Having those variables only set within the CONFIG_FTRACE_STARTUP_TEST
scope gets rid of them (and also the ability to remove testing against
them) when the startup tests are not enabled (most cases).
