David Vernet 4327b9eaf8 livepatch: Skip livepatch tests if ftrace cannot be configured
livepatch has a set of selftests that are used to validate the behavior of
the livepatching subsystem.  One of the testcases in the livepatch
testsuite is test-ftrace.sh, which among other things, validates that
livepatching gracefully fails when ftrace is disabled.  In the event that
ftrace cannot be disabled using 'sysctl kernel.ftrace_enabled=0', the test
will fail later due to it unexpectedly successfully loading the
test_klp_livepatch module.

While the livepatch selftests are careful to remove any of the livepatch
test modules between testcases to avoid this situation, ftrace may still
fail to be disabled if another trace is active on the system that was
enabled with FTRACE_OPS_FL_PERMANENT.  For example, any active BPF programs
that use trampolines will cause this test to fail due to the trampoline
being implemented with register_ftrace_direct().  The following is an
example of such a trace:

tcp_drop (1) R I D      tramp: ftrace_regs_caller+0x0/0x58
(call_direct_funcs+0x0/0x30)
        direct-->bpf_trampoline_6442550536_0+0x0/0x1000

In order to make the test more resilient to system state that is out of its
control, this patch updates set_ftrace_enabled() to detect sysctl failures,
and skip the testrun when appropriate.
