ftrace_graph_ret_addr() can be called by stack unwinding code to convert
a found stack return address ('ret') to its original value, in case the
function graph tracer has modified it to be 'return_to_handler'. If the
hasn't been modified, the unchanged value of 'ret' is returned.

The compiler has inserted 2 NOPs before the regular function prologue.
T series registers are available and safe because of LoongArch's psABI.
At runtime, we can replace nop with bl to enable ftrace call and replace
bl with nop to disable ftrace call. The bl instruction requires us to
save the original RA value, so it saves RA at t0 here.
Details are:
| Compiled | Disabled | Enabled |
+------------+------------------------+------------------------+
| nop | move t0, ra | move t0, ra |
| nop | nop | bl ftrace_caller |
| func_body | func_body | func_body |
The RA value will be recovered by ftrace_regs_entry, and restored into
RA before returning to the regular function prologue. When a function is
not being traced, the "move t0, ra" is not harmful.
1) ftrace_make_call, ftrace_make_nop (in kernel/ftrace.c)
The two functions turn each recorded call site of filtered functions
into a call to ftrace_caller or nops.
2) ftracce_update_ftrace_func (in kernel/ftrace.c)
turns the nops at ftrace_call into a call to a generic entry for
function tracers.
3) ftrace_caller (in kernel/mcount_dyn.S)
The entry where each _mcount call sites calls to once they are
filtered to be traced.

It unwind the stack frame based on prologue code analyze.
CONFIG_KALLSYMS is needed, at least the address and length
of each function.
Three stages when we do unwind,
1) unwind_start(), the prapare of unwinding, fill unwind_state.
2) unwind_done(), judge whether the unwind process is finished or not.
3) unwind_next_frame(), unwind the next frame.
Dividing unwinder helps to add new unwinders in the future, e.g.:
unwinder_frame, unwinder_orc, .etc.

Name "guess unwinder" comes from x86, it scans the stack and reports
every kernel text address it finds.
Unwinders can be used by dump_stack() and other stacktrace functions.
Three stages when we do unwind,
1) unwind_start(), the prapare of unwinding, fill unwind_state.
2) unwind_done(), judge whether the unwind process is finished or not.
3) unwind_next_frame(), unwind the next frame.
Add get_stack_info() to get stack info. At present we have irq stack and
task stack. The next_sp is the key info between two types of stacks.
Dividing unwinder helps to add new unwinders in the future.
