For information on how to implement prepare_ftrace_return(), simply look at the
x86 version (the frame pointer passing is optional; see the next section for
more information). The only architecture-specific piece in it is the setup of
the fault recovery table (the asm(...) code). The rest should be the same
across architectures.

HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_FP_TEST
---------------------------
An arch may pass in a unique value (frame pointer) to both the entering and
exiting of a function. On exit, the value is compared and if it does not
match, then it will panic the kernel. This is largely a sanity check for bad
code generation with gcc. If gcc for your port sanely updates the frame
pointer under different opitmization levels, then ignore this option.
However, adding support for it isn't terribly difficult. In your assembly code
that calls prepare_ftrace_return(), pass the frame pointer as the 3rd argument.
Then in the C version of that function, do what the x86 port does and pass it
along to ftrace_push_return_trace() instead of a stub value of 0.
Similarly, when you call ftrace_return_to_handler(), pass it the frame pointer.
