ftrace: Fix function probe when more than one probe is added
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When the first function probe is added and the function tracer
is updated the functions are modified to call the probe.
But when a second function is added, it updates the function
records to have the second function also update, but it fails
to update the actual function itself.

This prevents the second (or third or forth and so on) probes
from having their functions called.

Still need to update the functions even though the probe itself
does not need to be registered again when added a new probe.
