Similarly, when you call ftrace_return_to_handler(), pass it the frame pointer.
-HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RET_ADDR_PTR
---------------------------------
-
-An arch may pass in a pointer to the return address on the stack. This
-prevents potential stack unwinding issues where the unwinder gets out of
-sync with ret_stack and the wrong addresses are reported by
-ftrace_graph_ret_addr().
-
-Adding support for it is easy: just define the macro in asm/ftrace.h and
-pass the return address pointer as the 'retp' argument to
-ftrace_push_return_trace().
