[for-next][PATCH 2/9] ftrace: Remove redundant swap function

From: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk>

To cover the common case of sorting an array of pointers, Daniel
Wagner recently modified the library sort() to use a specific swap
function for size==8, in addition to the size==4 case which was
already handled. Since sizeof(long) is either 4 or 8,
ftrace_swap_ips() is redundant and we can just let sort() pick an
appropriate and fast swap callback.
