looks much better and the (minimal) generic impact is OK i think - as long as Paul Acks the powerpc changes we could freeze that branch (so that Paul can pull it in a few weeks) and base your ftrace-powerpc work on that.
( The branch should still be named something constructive like powerpc-ftrace-v29 or so - not ppc/ftrace-disable - but that's a detail. )
