tracing: Return error if register_ftrace_function_probe() fails for event_enable_func()
register_ftrace_function_probe() returns the number of functions it registered, which can be zero, it can also return a negative number if something went wrong. But event_enable_func() only checks for the case that it didn't register anything, it needs to also check for the case that something went wrong and return that error code as well. Added some comments about the code as well, to make it more understandable. Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
