tracing: kdb: Use tracer_tracing_on/off() instead of setting per CPU disabled

The per CPU "disabled" value was the original way to disable tracing when
the tracing subsystem was first created. Today, the ring buffer
infrastructure has its own way to disable tracing. In fact, things have
changed so much since 2008 that many things ignore the disable flag.

The kdb_ftdump() function iterates over all the current tracing CPUs and
increments the "disabled" counter before doing the dump, and decrements it
afterward.

As the disabled flag can be ignored, doing this today is not reliable.
Instead, simply call tracer_tracing_off() and then tracer_tracing_on() to
disable and then enabled the entire ring buffer in one go!
