    arm64: ftrace: fix the comments for ftrace_modify_code · 004ab584

    There is no need to worry about module and __init text disappearing
    case, because that ftrace has a module notifier that is called when
    a module is being unloaded and before the text goes away and this
    code grabs the ftrace_lock mutex and removes the module functions
    from the ftrace list, such that it will no longer do any
    modifications to that module's text, the update to make functions
    be traced or not is done under the ftrace_lock mutex as well.
    And by now, __init section codes should not been modified
    by ftrace, because it is black listed in recordmcount.c and
    ignored by ftrace.
