ftrace: add cpu annotation for function graph tracer

Impact: enhancement for function graph tracer

When run on a SMP box, the function graph tracer is confusing because
it shows the different CPUS as changes in the trace.

This patch adds the annotation of 'CPU[###]' where ### is a three digit
number. The output will look similar to this:

CPU[001]     dput() {
CPU[000] } 726
CPU[001]     } 487
CPU[000] do_softirq() {
CPU[001]   } 2221
CPU[000]   __do_softirq() {
CPU[000]     __local_bh_disable() {
CPU[001]   unroll_tree_refs() {
CPU[000]     } 569
CPU[001]   } 501
CPU[000]     rcu_process_callbacks() {
CPU[001]   kfree() {

What makes this nice is that now you can grep the file and produce
readable format for a particular CPU.

 # cat /debug/tracing/trace > /tmp/trace
 # grep '^CPU\[000\]' /tmp/trace > /tmp/trace0
 # grep '^CPU\[001\]' /tmp/trace > /tmp/trace1

Will give you:

 # head /tmp/trace0
CPU[000] ------------8<---------- thread sshd-3899 ------------8<----------
CPU[000]     inotify_dentry_parent_queue_event() {
CPU[000]     } 2531
CPU[000]     inotify_inode_queue_event() {
CPU[000]     } 505
CPU[000]   } 69626
CPU[000] } 73089
CPU[000] audit_syscall_exit() {
CPU[000]   path_put() {
CPU[000]     dput() {

 # head /tmp/trace1
CPU[001] ------------8<---------- thread pcscd-3446 ------------8<----------
CPU[001]               } 4186
CPU[001]               dput() {
CPU[001]               } 543
CPU[001]               vfs_permission() {
CPU[001]                 inode_permission() {
CPU[001]                   shmem_permission() {
CPU[001]                     generic_permission() {
CPU[001]                     } 501
CPU[001]                   } 2205
