----------------------------------------------------------------
ARM: ftrace fixes and cleanups

Make all flavors of ftrace available on all builds, regardless of ISA
choice, unwinder choice or compiler:
- use ADD not POP where possible
- fix a couple of Thumb2 related issues
- enable HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_FP_TEST for robustness
- enable the graph tracer with the EABI unwinder
- avoid clobbering frame pointer registers to make Clang happy

      ARM: ftrace: ensure that ADR takes the Thumb bit into account
      ARM: ftrace: use ADD not POP to counter PUSH at entry
      ARM: ftrace: use trampolines to keep .init.text in branching range
      ARM: ftrace: avoid redundant loads or clobbering IP
      ARM: ftrace: avoid unnecessary literal loads
      ARM: ftrace: enable HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_FP_TEST
      ARM: unwind: track location of LR value in stack frame
      ARM: ftrace: enable the graph tracer with the EABI unwinder
      ARM: kprobes: treat R7 as the frame pointer register in Thumb2 builds
      ARM: cacheflush: avoid clobbering the frame pointer
      ARM: mach-bcm: disable ftrace in SMC invocation routines
