From: Steven Rostedt <rost...@goodmis.org>
Allow a tracer to disable writing to its buffer for a temporary amount of
time and re-enable it.
The tracer_tracing_disable() will disable writing to the trace array
buffer, and requires a tracer_tracing_enable() to re-enable it.
The difference between tracer_tracing_disable() and tracer_tracing_off()
is that the disable version can nest, and requires as many enable() calls
as disable() calls to re-enable the buffer. Where as the off() function
can be called multiple times and only requires a singe tracer_tracing_on()
to re-enable the buffer.
