[PATCH] riscv: ftrace: only use pre-function NOPs with call ops

Commit c217157bcd1d ("riscv: Implement
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS") changed CC_FLAGS_FTRACE to use
-fpatchable-function-entry=8,4 or -fpatchable-function-entry=4,2
for all dynamic ftrace builds. That layout makes the compiler place an
8-byte area before the function entry, which is used as the per-callsite
ftrace_ops literal when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS is enabled.
RISC-V can still build with CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE=y and
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS=n, for example when
CONFIG_CFI_CLANG is enabled because HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS
is selected only when !CFI_CLANG. In that configuration
ftrace_call_adjust() does not skip the pre-function literal area and
only returns addr + MCOUNT_AUIPC_SIZE. With the pre-function layout,
that points into the pre-entry padding instead of the callsite jalr, so
dynamic ftrace records the wrong patch address.
Use the pre-function literal layout only when call ops are enabled.
Otherwise keep the previous patchable-function-entry counts so the
recorded address matches ftrace_call_adjust() non-call-ops path.
Fixes: c217157bcd1d ("riscv: Implement HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS")
