I have some mixed emotions about this. First, it's not "fake", the
function *is* going to return to it, but you are right, that's not the
function that was called.
I do like to see these in the trace, because sometimes these functions
are an issue. But I guess I can live with them being marked as
"unreliable".

Hmm, if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is enabled, perhaps we should only call
the look up of ftrace_graph_ret_addr(). Hmm, playing with this, yeah,
we definitely should. It can report the wrong reliability.
Without doing the reliability check we can get out of sync with the
ret_stack. I have a patch to go on top of this patch below (hmm, it may
not apply fully, because I was using a different base tree than you).

Note this changes behavior, as the original code had the ret_to_handler
first. This makes it second. (I fixed this below).
And that we should add a reliability check if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is
enabled.

This also changes the current code to print the return address as well.

Here's my patch that should be applied on top.
Maybe add a Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@...dmis.org> along
with your SOB. But you should remain Author.
