If a probe is attached to a static function that is in multiple files with
the same name, removing it by name will remove all instances:
# grep jump_label_unlock set_ftrace_filter
jump_label_unlock:traceoff:unlimited
jump_label_unlock:traceoff:unlimited
# echo '!jump_label_unlock:traceoff' >> set_ftrace_filter
# grep jump_label_unlock set_ftrace_filter
#
But the loop in reset_ftrace_filter will try to remove multiple instances
multiple times. If this happens the second time will error and cause the
test to fail.
At each iteration of the loop, check to see if the probe being removed still
exists.

If a function probe in set_ftrace_filter belongs to a module, it will
contain the module name. Like:
wmi_query_block [wmi]:traceoff:unlimited
But writing:
'!wmi_query_block [wmi]:traceoff' > set_ftrace_filter
will cause an error. We still need to write:
'!wmi_query_block:traceoff' > set_ftrace_filter

Just writing into the set_ftrace_filter file does not reset triggers, even
though it can reset the function list. Triggers require writing the trigger
name with a "!" prepended. It's worse that it requires the number if the
trigger has a count associated to it.
Add a reset_ftrace_filter function to the ftrace self tests to allow for the
tests to have a generic way to clear them. It also resets any functions that
are listed in that file as well.

Reset ftrace to initial state before running each test.
This fixes some test cases to enable tracing before starting
trace test. This can avoid false-positive failure when
previous testcase fails while disabling tracing.

Created the file tools/testing/ftrace/test.d/functions that will
hold helper functions.
Current helper functions include:
Add clear_trace() helper to reset the trace file
Used as a descriptive name to show that "echo > trace" is clearing
the trace file.
Add disable/enable_tracing() helper calls
Add calls that disable and enable tracing respectively by echoing
0 or 1 into tracing_on.
Add helper reset_tracer() function
Add a helper function reset_tracer() that will clear the current_tracer
(echo nop > current_tracer).
