All for full "regex(3)" processing of setting functions in the
set_ftrace_filter file. Check if the filter passed in is just a glob
expression that the kernel can process, or if it is a regex that should look
at the available_filter_functions list instead.

If it is a regex, it will read the available_filter_functions and write in
each function as it finds it.

+A filter in the array of _filters_ may be either a straight match of a
+function, a glob or regex(3). a glob is where '*' matches zero or more
+characters, '?' will match zero or one character, and '.' only matches a
+period. If the filter is determined to be a regex (where it contains
+anything other than alpha numeric characters, or '.', '*', '?') the filter
+will be processed as a regex(3) following the rules of regex(3), and '.' is
+not a period, but will match any one character. To force a regular
+expression, either prefix the filter with a '^' or append it with a '$' as
+all filters will act as complete matches of functions anyway.
+

if we give the filter as regex "^ext4*$" from user side, ideally it should match the ext4 filter functions, if i am not wrong, its not matching any filter in the available_filter_functions

is this expected behaviour?

if we give the filter as glob "ext4*" from userside, its making the regex and matching the ext4 filter functions in the available_filter_functions.

  returns 0  on success, 1 or -x (where x is an integer) on error.
