Mark Rutland b56c68f705 ftrace: Add sample with custom ops
When reworking core ftrace code or architectural ftrace code, it's often
necessary to test/analyse/benchmark a number of ftrace_ops
configurations. This patch adds a module which can be used to explore
some of those configurations.

I'm using this to benchmark various options for changing the way
trampolines and handling of ftrace_ops work on arm64, and ensuring other
architectures aren't adversely affected.

For example, in a QEMU+KVM VM running on a 2GHz Xeon E5-2660
workstation, loading the module in various configurations produces:

| # insmod ftrace-ops.ko

|   relevant ops: 1
