Subject: [PATCH v2] ftrace: Access ret_stack->subtime only in the function profiler

The subtime is used only for function profiler with function graph
tracer enabled.  Move the definition of subtime under
CONFIG_FUNCTION_PROFILER to reduce the memory usage.  Also move the
initialization of subtime into the graph entry callback.
