ftrace, orc, x86: Handle ftrace dynamically allocated trampolines
The function tracer can create a dynamically allocated trampoline that is called by the function mcount or fentry hook that is used to call the function callback that is registered. The problem is that the orc undwinder will bail if it encounters one of these trampolines. This breaks the stack trace of function callbacks, which include the stack tracer and setting the stack trace for individual functions. Since these dynamic trampolines are basically copies of the static ftrace trampolines defined in ftrace_*.S, we do not need to create new orc entries for the dynamic trampolines. Finding the return address on the stack will be identical as the functions that were copied to create the dynamic trampolines. When encountering a ftrace dynamic trampoline, we can just use the orc entry of the ftrace static function that was copied for that trampoline.
