[PATCH] tracing: fix stack tracer sysctl handling

[Li Zefan]

This made my machine completely frozen:
  # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/stack_tracer_enabled
  # echo 2 > /proc/sys/kernel/stack_tracer_enabled

The cause is register_ftrace_function() was called twice.

Also fix ftrace_enabled sysctl, though seems nothing bad happened
as I tested it.
