s390/ftrace: simplify enabling/disabling of ftrace_graph_caller
We can simply patch the mask field within the branch relative on condition instruction at the beginning of the ftrace_graph_caller code block. This makes the logic even simpler and we get rid of the displacement calculation. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
