Subject: [PATCH 1/2] powerpc/ftrace: support CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RETVAL

From: Aditya Bodkhe <aditya.b1@...ux.ibm.com>

commit a1be9ccc57f0 ("function_graph: Support recording and printing the
return value of function") introduced support for function graph return
value tracing.

Additionally, commit a3ed4157b7d8 ("fgraph: Replace fgraph_ret_regs with
ftrace_regs") further refactored and optimized the implementation,
making `struct fgraph_ret_regs` unnecessary.

This patch enables the above modifications for powerpc64, ensuring that
function graph return value tracing is available on this architecture.

After this patch, v6.14+ kernel can also be built with FPROBE on powerpc
but there are a few other build and runtime dependencies for FPROBE to
work properly. The next patch addresses them.
