ftrace: Make ftrace_graph_is_dead() a static branch
ftrace_graph_is_dead() is used on hot paths, it just reads a variable in memory and is not worth suffering function call constraints. For instance, at entry of prepare_ftrace_return(), inlining it avoids saving prepare_ftrace_return() parameters to stack and restoring them after calling ftrace_graph_is_dead(). While at it using a static branch is even more performant and is rather well adapted considering that the returned value will almost never change. Inline ftrace_graph_is_dead() and replace 'kill_ftrace_graph' bool by a static branch. The performance improvement is noticeable.
