tracing: Add ref_data to function and fgraph tracer structs
The selftest for function and function graph tracers are defined as __init, as they are only executed at boot up. The "tracer" structs that are associated to those tracers are not setup as __init as they are used after boot. To stop mismatch warnings, those structures need to be annotated with __ref_data. Currently, the tracer structures are defined to __read_mostly, as they do not really change. But in the future they should be converted to consts, but that will take a little work because they have a "next" pointer that gets updated when they are registered. That will have to wait till the next major release.
