ftrace: disable preemption when recursion locked
As the documentation explained, ftrace_test_recursion_trylock() and ftrace_test_recursion_unlock() were supposed to disable and enable preemption properly, however currently this work is done outside of the function, which could be missing by mistake. And since the internal using of trace_test_and_set_recursion() and trace_clear_recursion() also require preemption disabled, we can just merge the logical. This patch will make sure the preemption has been disabled when trace_test_and_set_recursion() return bit >= 0, and trace_clear_recursion() will enable the preemption if previously enabled.
