MIPS: mcount: Adjust stack pointer for static trace in MIPS32
Every mcount() call in the MIPS 32-bit kernel is done as follows: [...] move at, ra jal _mcount addiu sp, sp, -8 [...] but upon returning from the mcount() function, the stack pointer is not adjusted properly. This is explained in details in 58b69401c797 (MIPS: Function tracer: Fix broken function tracing). Commit ad8c396936e3 ("MIPS: Unbreak function tracer for 64-bit kernel.) fixed the stack manipulation for 64-bit but it didn't fix it completely for MIPS32.
