Subject: [PATCH 00/11] ftrace: add support for recording function parameters and return value

This series introduces a new ftrace feature CONFIG_FTRACE_FUNC_PROTOTYPE to
record function parameters and return value. It can be enabled/disabled at
runtime by a new trace option "record-funcproto".

To achieve this, we need the function prototype infomation and the location of
parameters. A new tool scripts/ftrace/funcprototype is provided to collect such
necessary infomation and put them into kernel. It walks through the DWARF debug
sections in each object file and output assembly code which defines the function
prototype data. Then the assembly code is built into the original object file.

Here is an example of memremap() function:
            .section __funcprotostr, "a"
    .P_memremap_0:
            .string "offset"
    .P_memremap_1:
            .string "size"
    .P_memremap_2:
            .string "flags"
    
            .section __funcproto,  "a"
            .quad memremap
            .byte 0x8
            .byte 0x3
            .quad .P_memremap_0
            .byte 0x8
            .byte 0x55
            .byte 0x0
            .quad .P_memremap_1
            .byte 0x8
            .byte 0x54
            .byte 0x0
            .quad .P_memremap_2
            .byte 0x8
            .byte 0x51
            .byte 0x0

Note that currently funcprototype only support global functions. Local functions
can also be supported by using the idea described in recordmcount.pl - temporary
change local functions to global.

The C ABI is arch specific. For arch which supports this feature must
implement a new  arch-specific interface arch_fgraph_record_params() and
deliver the return value of function to ftrace core part.

This series only add support for x86_64 platform. Other platforms can be
supported in the future.

Here is an example of the graph trace of function pick_next_task_fair().
Note that we only record the parameter and return value of global
functions.

The printing rules of each value is:
   o For signed value, it is always printed as decimal number.
   o For unsigned value,
     - For value has size great than 8, it is printed as '{..}'.
     - For value has size of 1,2,4,8, it is printed as hexadecimal number.
     - If failed to record a parameter, it is printed as '?'.
