tracing/fastboot: Enable boot tracing only during initcalls
Impact: modify boot tracer We used to disable the initcall tracing at a specified time (IE: end of builtin initcalls). But we don't need it anymore. It will be stopped when initcalls are finished. However we want two things: _Start this tracing only after pre-smp initcalls are finished. _Since we are planning to trace sched_switches at the same time, we want to enable them only during the initcall execution. For this purpose, this patch introduce two functions to enable/disable the sched_switch tracing during boot.
