Urk.

We want to disable it for everything in the directory, so can you do
something like:

  ORIG_CFLAGS := $(KBUILD_CFLAGS)
  KBUILD_CFLAGS = $(subst $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE),,$(ORIG_CFLAGS))

Yes:

  # Disable ftrace for the entire directory
  ORIG_CFLAGS := $(KBUILD_CFLAGS)
  KBUILD_CFLAGS = $(subst -mno-sched-epilog,,$(subst $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE),,$(ORIG_CFLAGS)))

Seems to work.
