powerpc ftrace functionality

[Lee Nipper]

Is ftrace functional with latest kernel on powerpc (32-bit) ?

I was checking basic functionality using the README steps.
The output of tracing/trace includes the header but nothing more (no trace lines).
It appears broken unless I'm missing something.

Below is the interaction.
