[PATCH] tracing: Remove PPC32 wart from config TRACING_SUPPORT

[PATCH] tracing: Remove PPC32 wart from config TRACING_SUPPORT

[Michael Ellerman]

config TRACING_SUPPORT has an exception for PPC32, because PPC32
didn't have irqflags tracing support.

But that hasn't been true since commit 5d38902c4838 ("powerpc: Add
irqtrace support for 32-bit powerpc") (Jun 2009).

So remove the exception for PPC32 and the comment.
