The PREEMPT_RT patchset does not use do_softirq() function thus trying
to filter for do_softirq fails for such kernel:
echo do_softirq
ftracetest: 81: echo: echo: I/O error
Choose some other visible function for the test. The function does not
have to be actually executed during the test, because it is only testing
filter API interface.

Changes since v1:
1. Use scheduler_tick.
2. Add review tag.
Notes:
I understand that the failure does not exist on mainline kernel (only
with PREEMPT_RT patchset) but the change does not harm it.
If it is not suitable alone, please consider it for RT patchset.
