When using function graph tracer, the printed call trace will be as
following that has many ftrace_graph_caller (return_to_handler - 4),
which is been placed in the stack by ftrace_graph tracer to replace
the real return address.

    [  198.582568] Call trace:
    [  198.583313] [<ffffffc0002a1070>] next_tgid+0x30/0x100
    [  198.584359] [<ffffffc0000907bc>] ftrace_graph_caller+0x6c/0x70
    [  198.585503] [<ffffffc0000907bc>] ftrace_graph_caller+0x6c/0x70
    [  198.586574] [<ffffffc0000907bc>] ftrace_graph_caller+0x6c/0x70
    [  198.587660] [<ffffffc0000907bc>] ftrace_graph_caller+0x6c/0x70
    [  198.588896] Code: aa0003f5 2a0103f4 b4000102 91004043 (885f7c60)
    [  198.591092] ---[ end trace 6a346f8f20949ac8 ]---

This patch fix it, and dump the real return address in the call trace.
