ftrace: tracing header should put '#' at the beginning of a line

In a recent discussion, Andrew Morton pointed out that tracing header
should put '#' at the beginning of a line.

Then, we can easily filtered the header by following grep usage:

  cat trace | grep -v '^#'

Wakeup trace also has the same header problem.

Comparison of headers displayed:
