NO, ftrace_lookup_ip() returns NULL if the hash is empty, so adding
!ftrace_hash_empty() is meaningless :)

Actually, here I intended to have 3 meanings for the new/old_hash arguments,
- If it is NULL, it hits all
- If it is EMPTY_HASH, it hits nothing
- If it has some entries, it hits those entries.

And in ftrace.c(__ftrace_hash_rec_update), AFAICS, ops->filter_hash has only
2 meanings,
- If it is EMPTY_HASH or NULL, it hits all
- If it has some entries, it hits those entries.

So I had to do above change...

NO, _enable() is called right before ftrace_hash_rec_enable(ops,1) which
always enables filter_hash (since the 2nd arg is 1). If the filter_hash
is empty, ftrace_hash_rec_enable() enables ftrace_ops on all ftrace_recs.

Ah, but I found I made a redundant mistake (different one) in ftrace_hash_move(),
ftrace_hash_ipmodify_update() should be done only if "enable" is set (that
means ftrace_hash_move() updates filter_hash, not notrace_hash).
I'll update this patch.

Thank you, :)
