[PATCH] kernel-shark: Fix bug in filter clearing

["Yordan Karadzhov (VMware)" <y.karadz@xxxxxxxxx>]

Applying a filter to the loaded tracing data requires looping over
the entire data-set of entries. On large data-set this can be very
expensive operation. To coop with this, a number of checks are putted
in place to making sure that a loop is not performed in a case when
it is not really needed. However, there is a mistake in the logic of
these checks. So far we considered that calling filter_entries() with
no filter being set does not require looping over the data. But this
is not correct because if a filter had been applied already, calling
the function with an empty filter is equivalent of clearing the
existing filter, hence  it is a legitimate operation and indeed we
need to loop over the data.
