While ftrace_trace_function changes from the list func to a ftrace_ops func, like unregistering the klp_ops to leave the only global_ops in ftrace_ops_list, the ftrace_[regs]_call will be replaced with the list func although it already exists. So there should be a condition to avoid this. And suggested using another variable to keep track of what the ftrace function is set to. But this could be simplified by using a helper function that does the same with a static variable.
