Subject: [RFC PATCH v4 04/17] powerpc32/ftrace: Unify 32-bit and 64-bit ftrace entry code

On 32-bit powerpc, gcc generates a three instruction sequence for
function profiling:
	mflr	r0
	stw	r0, 4(r1)
	bl	_mcount

On kernel boot, the call to _mcount() is nop-ed out, to be patched back
in when ftrace is actually enabled. The 'stw' instruction therefore is
not necessary unless ftrace is enabled. Nop it out during ftrace init.

When ftrace is enabled, we want the 'stw' so that stack unwinding works
properly. Perform the same within the ftrace handler, similar to 64-bit
powerpc.
