By the way, I was playing with the the orc unwinder and stack traces
from the function graph tracer return code, and got it working with the
below patch. Caution, that patch also has a stack trace hardcoded in
the return path of the function graph tracer, so you don't want to run
function graph tracing without filtering.

You can apply the patch and do:

 # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
 # echo schedule > set_ftrace_filter
 # echo function_graph > current_tracer
 # cat trace

 3)               |  schedule() {
     rcu_preempt-10    [003] ....    91.160297: <stack trace>
 => ftrace_return_to_handler
 => return_to_handler
 => schedule_timeout
 => rcu_gp_kthread
 => kthread
 => ret_from_fork
 3) # 4009.085 us |  }
 3)               |  schedule() {
     kworker/1:0-17    [001] ....    91.163288: <stack trace>
 => ftrace_return_to_handler
 => return_to_handler
 => worker_thread
 => kthread
 => ret_from_fork
 1) # 7000.070 us |  }
 1)               |  schedule() {
     rcu_preempt-10    [003] ....    91.164311: <stack trace>
 => ftrace_return_to_handler
 => return_to_handler
 => schedule_timeout
 => rcu_gp_kthread
 => kthread
 => ret_from_fork
 3) # 4006.540 us |  }


Where just adding the stack trace without the other code, these traces
ended at "return_to_handler".

This patch is not for inclusion, it was just a test to see how to make
this work.
