Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] fgraph: Free ret_stack when task is done with it

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@...dmis.org>

The shadow stack used for function graph is only freed when function graph
is done for those tasks that are no longer using them. That's because a
function that does a long sleep (like poll) could be traced, and its
original return address on the stack has been replaced with a pointer to a
trampoline, but that return address is saved on the shadow stack. It can
not be freed until the function returns and there's no more return
addresses being stored on the shadow stack.

Add a static_branch test in the return part of the function graph code
that is called after the return address on the shadow stack is popped. If
the shadow stack is empty, call an irq_work that will call a work queue
that will run the shadow stack freeing code again. This will clean up all
the shadow stacks that were not removed when function graph ended but are
no longer being used.
