You're right I just corrected it in this V2.

Subject: [PATCH 2/3][V2] tracing/ftrace: make nop tracer using tracer flags

Impact: give an example on how to use specific tracer flags

This patch propose to use the nop tracer to provide an
example for using the tracer's custom flags implementation.

(V2: replace structures and defines just after the headers includes for
cleanliness).
