Subject: ftrace: handle generic arch calls

The recordmcount script requires that the actual arch is passed in.
This works well when ARCH=i386 or ARCH=x86_64 but does not handle the
case of ARCH=x86.

This patch adds a parameter to the function to pass in the number of
bits of the architecture. So that it can determine if x86 should be
run for x86_64 or i386 archs.
