microblaze: Fix ftrace_update_ftrace_func panic
The Microblaze dynamic ftrace code assumes a call ordering that is not met in all scenarios. Specifically, executing a command similar to: echo 105 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_pid before any other tracing-related commands results in a kernel panic: BUG: failure at arch/microblaze/kernel/ftrace.c:198/ftrace_update_ftrace_func()! Recoding ftrace_update_ftrace_func() to use &ftrace_caller directly eliminates the need to capture its address elsewhere (and thus rely on a particular call sequence). Signed-off-by: Steven J. Magnani <steve@digidescorp.com> Signed-off-by: Michal Simek <monstr@monstr.eu>
