tracing: Replace typecasted void pointer in set_ftrace_filter code
The set_ftrace_filter uses seq_file and reads from two lists. The
pointer returned by t_next() can either be of type struct dyn_ftrace
or struct ftrace_func_probe. If there is a bug (there was one)
the wrong pointer may be used and the reference can cause an oops.
This patch makes t_next() and friends only return the iterator structure
which now has a pointer of type struct dyn_ftrace and struct
ftrace_func_probe. The t_show() can now test if the pointer is NULL or
not and if the pointer exists, it is guaranteed to be of the correct type.
Now if there's a bug, only wrong data will be shown but not an oops.
