ftrace: prevent freeing of all failed updates
Prevent freeing of records which cause problems and correspond to function from core kernel text. A new flag, FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED is used to mark a record as "converted". All other records are patched lazily to NOPs. Failed records now also remain on frace_hash table. Each invocation of ftrace_record_ip now checks whether the traced function has ever been recorded (including past failures) and doesn't re-record it again.
