Steven Rostedt (VMware) aba4b5c22c ftrace: Save module init functions kallsyms symbols for tracing
If function tracing is active when the module init functions are freed, then
store them to be referenced by kallsyms. As module init functions can now be
traced on module load, they were useless:

 ># echo ':mod:snd_seq' > set_ftrace_filter
 ># echo function > current_tracer
 ># modprobe snd_seq
 ># cat trace
 # tracer: function
 #
 #                              _-----=> irqs-off
 #                             / _----=> need-resched
 #                            | / _---=> hardirq/softirq
 #                            || / _--=> preempt-depth
 #                            ||| /     delay
 #           TASK-PID   CPU#  ||||    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
 #              | |       |   ||||       |         |
         modprobe-2786  [000] ....  3189.037874: 0xffffffffa0860000 <-do_one_initcall
         modprobe-2786  [000] ....  3189.037876: 0xffffffffa086004d <-0xffffffffa086000f
         modprobe-2786  [000] ....  3189.037876: 0xffffffffa086010d <-0xffffffffa0860018
         modprobe-2786  [000] ....  3189.037877: 0xffffffffa086011a <-0xffffffffa0860021
         modprobe-2786  [000] ....  3189.037877: 0xffffffffa0860080 <-0xffffffffa086002a
         modprobe-2786  [000] ....  3189.039523: 0xffffffffa0860400 <-0xffffffffa0860033
         modprobe-2786  [000] ....  3189.039523: 0xffffffffa086038a <-0xffffffffa086041c
         modprobe-2786  [000] ....  3189.039591: 0xffffffffa086038a <-0xffffffffa0860436
         modprobe-2786  [000] ....  3189.039657: 0xffffffffa086038a <-0xffffffffa0860450
         modprobe-2786  [000] ....  3189.039719: 0xffffffffa0860127 <-0xffffffffa086003c
         modprobe-2786  [000] ....  3189.039742: snd_seq_create_kernel_client <-0xffffffffa08601f6

When the output is shown, the kallsyms for the module init functions have
already been freed, and the output of the trace can not convert them to
their function names.

Now this looks like this:

 # tracer: function
 #
 #                              _-----=> irqs-off
 #                             / _----=> need-resched
 #                            | / _---=> hardirq/softirq
 #                            || / _--=> preempt-depth
 #                            ||| /     delay
 #           TASK-PID   CPU#  ||||    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
 #              | |       |   ||||       |         |
