    ftrace: Add information on number of page groups allocated
    
    [ Upstream commit da537f0aef1372c5204356a7df06be8769467b7b ]
    
    Looking for ways to shrink the size of the dyn_ftrace structure, knowing the
    information about how many pages and the number of groups of those pages, is
    useful in working out the best ways to save on memory.
    
    This adds one info print on how many groups of pages were used to allocate
    the ftrace dyn_ftrace structures, and also shows the number of pages and
    groups in the dyn_ftrace_total_info (which is used for debugging).
