From: Shengming Hu <hu.shengming@zte.com.cn>

When registering a second fgraph callback, direct path is disabled
and array loop is used instead.
When ftrace_graph_active falls back to one, we try to re-enable direct
mode via ftrace_graph_enable_direct(true, ...).
But ftrace_graph_enable_direct() incorrectly disables the static key
rather than enabling it.
This leaves fgraph_do_direct permanently off after first multi-callback
transition, so direct fast mode is never restored.

Fixes: cc60ee813b503 ("function_graph: Use static_call and branch to optimize entry function")

Good catch!

Your email client killed your patch. it has huge white-space damage.
But because it's such a trivial change, I'll fix it up for you. But
next time please make sure your email client doesn't corrupt your
patches.

Thanks,

Hi Steve,
I’ve identified the cause of the email formatting issue and have resent the patch. 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20260213142932519cuWSpEXeS4-UnCvNXnK2P@zte.com.cn/T/#u

Thank you very much for the reminder.
