[PATCH] ARM: ftrace: Trace function entry before updating index

Commit 722b3c74695377d11d18a52f3da08114d37f3f37 modified x86 ftrace to
avoid tracing all functions called from irqs when function graph was
used with a filter.  Port the same fix to ARM.

It looks like the same issue affects blackfin, microblaze, mips,
parisc, powerpc, s390, sh, and sparc, but I don't have patches to
fix those.
