ftrace: Fix t_hash_start()

When the output of set_ftrace_filter is larger than PAGE_SIZE,
t_hash_start() will be called the 2nd time, and then we start
from the head of a hlist, which is wrong and causes some entries
to be outputed twice.

The worse is, if the hlist is large enough, reading set_ftrace_filter
won't stop but in a dead loop.
