[PATCH] selftests/ftrace: Add test to exercize function tracer across cpu hotplug

[Naveen N Rao]

Add a test to exercize cpu hotplug with the function tracer active to
ensure that sensitive functions in idle path are excluded from being
traced. This helps catch issues such as the one fixed by commit
4b3338aaa74d ("powerpc/ftrace: Fix stack teardown in ftrace_no_trace").

This looks good, but can you find the 2nd online CPU before
this test?
I mean, there is a case that cpu1 is already offlined and others
like cpu2 is onlined. So we need to use the 2nd online cpu.

Thank you,

Good point, thanks. I will send a v2.
