perf evsel: Fix ftrace:function event recording
Following patch fails (-EINVAL) ftrace:function with enabled user space callchains: cfa77bc4af2c perf: Disallow user-space callchains for function trace events We need to follow in perf tool itself and explicitly set the perf_event_attr::exclude_callchain_user flag for ftrace:function event.
