So I'm guessing that we need to have a fgraph_set_filter*() operations?

When one gets added, it needs to update the ftrace_ops to include the added
functions. Or we need to have a way to create a new hash from all the
registered fgraph_ops, and have that for the ftrace_ops. Then when it gets
called, if it has more than one registered function, it needs to iterate
over the list?
