Steven Rostedt (VMware) 67d7bec3fc function_graph: Create function_graph_enter() to consolidate architecture code
commit 8114865ff8 upstream.

Currently all the architectures do basically the same thing in preparing the
function graph tracer on entry to a function. This code can be pulled into a
generic location and then this will allow the function graph tracer to be
fixed, as well as extended.

Create a new function graph helper function_graph_enter() that will call the
hook function (ftrace_graph_entry) and the shadow stack operation
(ftrace_push_return_trace), and remove the need of the architecture code to
manage the shadow stack.

This is needed to prepare for a fix of a design bug on how the curr_ret_stack
is used.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
