When DYNAMIC_FTRACE is enabled and we use the C version of recordmcount,
all objects are run through the recordmcount program to create a
separate section that stores all the callers of mcount.
The build process has a special file: scripts/mod/empty.o. This is
built from empty.c which is literally an empty file (except for a
single comment). This file is used to find information about the target
elf format, like endianness and word size.
The problem comes up when we need to build recordmcount. The
build process requires that empty.o is built first. The build rules
for empty.o will try to execute recordmcount on the empty.o file.
We get an error that recordmcount does not exist.
To avoid this recursion, the build file will skip running recordmcount
if the file that it is building is script/mod/empty.o.

The C version of recordmcount is compiled to a binary, which will
end up located in the objtree. If the kernel is built with O=path,
the srctree will not include the binary recordmcount caller.

The file kernel/trace/ftrace.c references the mcount() call to
convert the mcount() callers to nops. But because it references
mcount(), the mcount() address is placed in the relocation table.
The C version of recordmcount reads the relocation table of all
object files, and it will add all references to mcount to the
__mcount_loc table that is used to find the places that call mcount()
and change the call to a nop. When recordmcount finds the mcount reference
in kernel/trace/ftrace.o, it saves that location even though the code
is not a call, but references mcount as data.
On boot up, when all calls are converted to nops, the code has a safety
check to determine what op code it is actually replacing before it
replaces it. If that op code at the address does not match, then
a warning is printed and the function tracer is disabled.
The reference to mcount in ftrace.c, causes this warning to trigger,
since the reference is not a call to mcount(). The ftrace.c file is
not compiled with the -pg flag, so no calls to mcount() should be
expected.
This patch simply makes recordmcount.c skip the kernel/trace/ftrace.c
file. This was the same solution used by the perl version of
recordmcount.

The elf reader for recordmcount.c had duplicate functions for both
32 bit and 64 bit elf handling. This was due to the need of using
the 32 and 64 bit elf structures.
This patch consolidates the two by using macros to define the 32
and 64 bit names in a recordmcount.h file, and then by just defining
a RECORD_MCOUNT_64 macro and including recordmcount.h twice we
create the funtions for both the 32 bit version as well as the
64 bit version using one code source.

This patch adds the support for the C version of recordmcount and
compile times show ~ 12% improvement.
After verifying this works, other archs can add:
HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD
in its Kconfig and it will use the C version of recordmcount
instead of the perl version.

Currently, the mcount callers are found with a perl script that does
an objdump on every file in the kernel. This is a C version of that
same code which should increase the performance time of compiling
the kernel with dynamic ftrace enabled.

The following build bug occurs on distcc builds:
CC arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets.s
In file included from include/linux/module.h:24,
from include/linux/crypto.h:22,
from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets_64.c:9,

include/trace/events/module.h:18: error: expected '(' before 'goto'
include/trace/events/module.h:18: error: expected identifier or '*' before '(' token
It triggers because distcc is invoked by turning $CC into "distcc gcc",
but gcc-goto.sh check script was using $1 not $@ to expand parameters.

base patch to implement 'jump labeling'. Based on a new 'asm goto' inline
assembly gcc mechanism, we can now branch to labels from an 'asm goto'
statment. This allows us to create a 'no-op' fastpath, which can subsequently
be patched with a jump to the slowpath code. This is useful for code which
might be rarely used, but which we'd like to be able to call, if needed.
Tracepoints are the current usecase that these are being implemented for.

When you don't use !E or !I but only !F, then it's very easy to miss
including some functions, structs etc. in documentation. To help
finding which ones were missed, allow printing out the unused ones as
warnings.
For example, using this on mac80211 yields a lot of warnings like this:
Warning: didn't use docs for DOC: mac80211 workqueue
Warning: didn't use docs for ieee80211_max_queues
Warning: didn't use docs for ieee80211_bss_change
Warning: didn't use docs for ieee80211_bss_conf
when generating the documentation for it.

This adds mcount recording and updates dynamic ftrace for ARM to work
with the new ftrace dyamic tracing implementation. It also adds support
for the mcount format used by newer ARM compilers.
With dynamic tracing, mcount() is implemented as a nop. Callsites are
patched on startup with nops, and dynamically patched to call to the
ftrace_caller() routine as needed.

On ARM, we have two ABIs, and the ABI used is controlled via a config
option. Object files built with one ABI can't be merged with object
files built with the other ABI. So, record_mcount.pl needs to use the
same compiler flags as the kernel when generating the object file with
the mcount locations. Ensure this by passing CFLAGS to the script.

Fix this by checking if the kernel source tree is the root of the git or
hg repository. No fix for svn: If the kernel source is not tracked in
the svn repository, it works as expected, otherwise determining the
'repository root' is not really a defined task.
