Both are real. Fixed in v6.

The commit message was left over from the stricter reset design that
was dropped in favour of map-only reset. It no longer claims the
trace_array buffers are cleared. ftrace_stackmap_create() still takes
the owning trace_array, but for a different reason: the text and
binary exports run stack addresses through trace_adjust_address().

The export was indeed dead. With the ring-buffer clear gone,
tracing_reset_all_cpus() has no caller outside trace.c, so v6 restores
it to a private static helper and removes the declaration from
trace.h.
