ftrace: add ftrace_kill_atomic 

It has been suggested that I add a way to disable the function tracer
on an oops. This code adds a ftrace_kill_atomic. It is not meant to be
used in normal situations. It will disable the ftrace tracer, but will
not perform the nice shutdown that requires scheduling.
