You might want to update your config (make oldconfig?) The latest tip has
FUNCTION_TRACER instead of FTRACE.

Also, the config you sent me, does not even have FTRACE on :-/

CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE=y
CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE=y
CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD=y
CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE=y
CONFIG_RING_BUFFER=y
CONFIG_TRACING=y
# CONFIG_FTRACE is not set
# CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER is not set
# CONFIG_PREEMPT_TRACER is not set
# CONFIG_SYSPROF_TRACER is not set
CONFIG_SCHED_TRACER=y
CONFIG_CONTEXT_SWITCH_TRACER=y
