tracing/ring-buffer: Only have tracing_on disable tracing buffers
As the ring-buffer code is being used by other facilities in the kernel, having tracing_on file disable *all* buffers is not a desired affect. It should only disable the ftrace buffers that are being used. Move the code into the trace.c file and use the buffer disabling for tracing_on() and tracing_off(). This way only the ftrace buffers will be affected by them and other kernel utilities will not be confused to why their output suddenly stopped. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
