Currently the global_ops filtering hash is not available to outside
users registering for function tracing. Provide an API for those
users to be able to choose global filtering.
This is in preparation for pstore's ftrace feature to be able to
use the global filters.

Currently, pstore doesn't have any filters setup for function tracing. This
has the associated overhead and may not be useful for users looking for tracing
specific set of functions.
ftrace's regular function trace filtering is done writing to
tracing/set_ftrace_filter however this is not available if not requested.
Inorder to be able to use this feature, the support to request global filtering
introduced earlier in the series should be requested before registering the
ftrace ops. Here we do the same.

I think we should add:
if (ops->flags & FTRACE_OPS_FL_INITIALIZED)
return;
This function must only be called if ops hasn't been initialized yet.
Probably need to add that in the comment for the function as well.
But other than that, this looks good. Post an update, and since the
next patch is dependent on this one, It may be best to go through your
tree (after I ack the next version of this patch).
