parisc/ftrace: Fix function graph tracing disablement

Due to an apparent copy-paste bug, the parisc implementation of
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() doesn't actually do anything.  It
enables the (already-enabled) static key rather than disabling it.

The result is that after function graph tracing has been "disabled", any
subsequent (non-graph) function tracing will inadvertently also enable
the slow fgraph return address hijacking.

Fixes: 98f2926171ae ("parisc/ftrace: use static key to enable/disable function graph tracer")

Awfully quite :-/

I wonder if anyone cares about parisc today?

Hmm.

I still see some git activity in arch/parisc, so apparently so...

I only stumbled on this by accident (code inspection) while making
another unrelated change.

Actually I do, and yes we have users.
Of course in reality that's "fun" users and not "productive" usage.

 From programming perspective parisc is quite interesting since it
has an upwards-growing stack, limited ways of atomic ops,
and some awkward cache dependencies, so I regularly find
issues in generic Linux code which would not be found otherwise.

Thanks for your patch!
I'll apply it in my for-next git tree and push upstream at some point
(unless someone else takes it before me).

We welcome those "fun" users as well!

For architecture patches like this, even if it is obvious, I rather it go
through them, as I wouldn't even compile test it.

Please take it through your tree.

Thanks,
