ftrace: Remove FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED flag
Since we disable all function tracer processing if we detect that a modification of a instruction had failed, we do not need to track that the record has failed. No more ftrace processing is allowed, and the FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED flag is pointless. The FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED flag was used to denote records that were successfully converted from mcount calls into nops. But if a single record fails, all of ftrace is disabled. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
