perf/ftrace: Check for rcu_is_watching() in callback function
If a ftrace callback requires "rcu_is_watching", then it adds the FTRACE_OPS_FL_RCU flag and it will not be called if RCU is not "watching". But this means that it will use a trampoline when called, and this slows down the function tracing a tad. By checking rcu_is_watching() from within the callback, it no longer needs the RCU flag set in the ftrace_ops and it can be safely called directly.
