IIRC it should be fine if you're building with Clang. The
"-falign-function" flag for gcc is not aligning cold functions. So I
think we'd need some Kconfig checks for the difference.

Yes, it's atomic. But it doesn't guarantee ordering if fence.i is not
executed, IIUC. I am not sure if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS
assumes seeing the updated ftrace_rec argument right after the patch
completes. If that is the case then probably a batched fence.i is
needed on local + remote cores.
