Subject: [for-linus][PATCH 2/2] tracing: Use ring_buffer_record_is_set_on() in tracer_tracing_is_on()

From: Sven Schnelle <svens@...ux.ibm.com>

tracer_tracing_is_on() checks whether record_disabled is not zero. This
checks both the record_disabled counter and the RB_BUFFER_OFF flag.
Reading the source it looks like this function should only check for
the RB_BUFFER_OFF flag. Therefore use ring_buffer_record_is_set_on().
This fixes spurious fails in the 'test for function traceon/off triggers'
test from the ftrace testsuite when the system is under load.
