Subject: [PATCH v2 05/27] function_graph: Handle tail calls for stack unwinding

From: "Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <[email protected]>

For the tail-call, there would be 2 or more ftrace_ret_stacks on the
ret_stack, which records "return_to_handler" as the return address except
for the last one. But on the real stack, there should be 1 entry because
tail-call reuses the return address on the stack and jump to the next
function.

In ftrace_graph_ret_addr() that is used for stack unwinding, skip tail
calls as a real stack unwinder would do.
