Subject: [PATCH] ftrace: Consistently restore trace function on sysctl
 enabling

commit 5000c418840b309251c5887f0b56503aae30f84c upstream.

If we reenable ftrace via syctl, we currently set ftrace_trace_function
based on the previous simplistic algorithm. This is inconsistent with
what update_ftrace_function does. So better call that helper instead.
