[PATCH 1/3] ftrace: Remove a superfluous check

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Thu Jun 14 2012 - 21:04:33 EST


From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxxxx>

register_ftrace_function() checks ftrace_disabled and calls
__register_ftrace_function which does it again.

Drop the first check and add the unlikely hint to the second one. Also,
drop the label as John correctly notices.

No functional change.
