I have no strong opinion whether to do the reset in "open" or in first
"write".

All said, I think this is cleaner, without introducing a new flag:

@@ -2260,6 +2256,9 @@ ftrace_regex_write(struct file *file, const char __user *ubuf,
return 0;

mutex_lock(&ftrace_regex_lock);
+ if (file->f_pos == 0 &&
+ (file->f_mode & FMODE_WRITE) && !(file->f_flags & O_APPEND))
+ ftrace_filter_reset(enable);

if (file->f_mode & FMODE_READ) {
struct seq_file *m = file->private_data;
