Allow filter to be NULL when RESET flag is set, or to commit
an already opened filter.

Also add a "FUTURE" flag to match modules that have yet to be loaded.
Starting in Linux v4.13, module functions can be added to the filter
file before the module is loaded (and does not have any matching
function). If the FUTURE flag is set, it will write the filter
directly, and this only works for globs or direct function names.

This patch set is based on top of:
