Subject: [PATCH 05/19] x86/dumpstack: fix function graph tracing stack dump reliability issues

When function graph tracing is enabled for a function, its return
address on the stack is replaced with the address of an ftrace handler
(return_to_handler).  When dumping the stack of a task with graph
tracing enabled, there are some subtle bugs:

- The fake return_to_handler() address can be reported as reliable.
  Instead, because it's not the real caller, it should be considered
  unreliable.

- In print_context_stack(), the real caller's return address is always
  reported as reliable, even if the return_to_handler() address wasn't
  referred to by a frame pointer.

In addition to fixing these bugs, convert print_ftrace_graph_addr() to a
more generic function which can be used outside of dump_trace()
callbacks.
