tracing: branch tracer, fix vdso crash

Browse Source 
Impact: fix bootup crash

the branch tracer missed arch/x86/vdso/vclock_gettime.c from
disabling tracing, which caused such bootup crashes:

  [  201.840097] init[1]: segfault at 7fffed3fe7c0 ip 00007fffed3fea2e sp 000077

also clean up the ugly ifdefs in arch/x86/kernel/vsyscall_64.c by
creating DISABLE_UNLIKELY_PROFILE facility for code to turn off
instrumentation on a per file basis.
