applied the following bits to tip/tracing/ftrace:
3ce83ae: ftrace: rename the ftrace tracer to function 606576c: ftrace: rename FTRACE to FUNCTION_TRACER c2db805: ftrace: fix depends bd95b88: ftrace: release functions from hash c513867: ftrace: do not enclose logic in WARN_ON
thanks Steve! I left out the defconfig bits - out of sync symbol names there do not hurt, and those files are high-flux anyway and generally updated by the arch maintainers regularly.
