It looks like it accomplishes the goal, but I wonder if you could
simplify it by getting rid of the no_reset flag and all the state-saving
while keeping the dry_run param on filter_add_pred to use from
filter_add_subsysystem_pred() e.g. something like this:

filter_add_subsystem_pred(...)
{
...
list_for_each_entry(call, &ftrace_events, list) {
err = filter_add_pred(ps, call, pred, dry_run = 1);
if (!err)
filter_add_pred(ps, call, pred, dry_run = 0);
...
}
}

IIRC the state-saving was necessary if the idea was to back out of (or
avoid setting) all the filters if one failed, but the new model is to
set whichever apply while leaving the rest alone. I think the simpler
approach above accomplishes that, but I may be missing something or have
forgotten the original motivation for doing it this way.
