[PATCH v5 2/2] arm64/ftrace: Make function graph use ftrace directly

As we do in commit 0c0593b45c9b ("x86/ftrace: Make function graph
use ftrace directly"), we don't need special hook for graph tracer,
but instead we use graph_ops:func function to install return_hooker.

Since commit 3b23e4991fb6 ("arm64: implement ftrace with regs") add
implementation for FTRACE_WITH_REGS on arm64, we can easily adopt
the same cleanup on arm64.

And this cleanup only changes the FTRACE_WITH_REGS implementation,
so the mcount-based implementation is unaffected.

While in theory it would be possible to make a similar cleanup for
!FTRACE_WITH_REGS, this will require rework of the core code, and
so for now we only change the FTRACE_WITH_REGS implementation.

v5:
 - Add reason why this patch only changed FTRACE_WITH_REGS
   implementation in the commit message as suggested by Mark.
 - Change to use nicer comment in ftrace_graph_func() as suggested
   by Mark, because the previous comment sounds like there's an bug
   to be fixed.
 - Add Tested-by and Reviewed-by tags from Mark, thanks.

v3:
 - Add comments in ftrace_graph_func() as suggested by Steve. Thanks.

v2:
 - Remove FTRACE_WITH_REGS ftrace_graph_caller asm, thanks Mark.
