	MIPS: Tracing: Add dynamic function tracer support
With dynamic function tracer, by default, _mcount is defined as an
"empty" function, it returns directly without any more action . When
enabling it in user-space, it will jump to a real tracing
function(ftrace_caller), and do the real job for us.
Differ from the static function tracer, dynamic function tracer provides
two functions ftrace_make_call()/ftrace_make_nop() to enable/disable the
tracing of some indicated kernel functions(set_ftrace_filter).
In the -v4 version, the implementation of this support is basically the same as
X86 version does: _mcount is implemented as an empty function and ftrace_caller
is implemented as a real tracing function respectively.
But in this version, to support module tracing with the help of
-mlong-calls in arch/mips/Makefile:
MODFLAGS += -mlong-calls.
The stuff becomes a little more complex. We need to cope with two
different type of calling to _mcount.
For the kernel part, the calling to _mcount(result of "objdump -hdr
vmlinux"). is like this:
	108:   03e0082d        move    at,ra
	10c:   0c000000        jal     0 <fpcsr_pending>
                        10c: R_MIPS_26  _mcount
                        10c: R_MIPS_NONE        *ABS*
                        10c: R_MIPS_NONE        *ABS*
	110:   00020021        nop
For the module with -mlong-calls, it looks like this:
	c:	3c030000 	lui	v1,0x0
			c: R_MIPS_HI16	_mcount
			c: R_MIPS_NONE	*ABS*
			c: R_MIPS_NONE	*ABS*
	10:	64630000 	daddiu	v1,v1,0
			10: R_MIPS_LO16	_mcount
			10: R_MIPS_NONE	*ABS*
			10: R_MIPS_NONE	*ABS*
	14:	03e0082d 	move	at,ra
	18:	0060f809 	jalr	v1
In the kernel version, there is only one "_mcount" string for every
kernel function, so, we just need to match this one in mcount_regex of
scripts/recordmcount.pl, but in the module version, we need to choose
one of the two to match. Herein, I choose the first one with
"R_MIPS_HI16 _mcount".
and In the kernel verion, without module tracing support, we just need
to replace "jal _mcount" by "jal ftrace_caller" to do real tracing, and
filter the tracing of some kernel functions via replacing it by a nop
instruction.
but as we have described before, the instruction "jal ftrace_caller" only left
32bit length for the address of ftrace_caller, it will fail when calling from
the module space. so, herein, we must replace something else.
the basic idea is loading the address of ftrace_caller to v1 via changing these
two instructions:
	lui	v1,0x0
	addiu	v1,v1,0
If we want to enable the tracing, we need to replace the above instructions to:
	lui	v1, HI_16BIT_ftrace_caller
	addiu	v1, v1, LOW_16BIT_ftrace_caller
If we want to stop the tracing of the indicated kernel functions, we
just need to replace the "jalr v1" to a nop instruction. but we need to
replace two instructions and encode the above two instructions
oursevles.
Is there a simpler solution? Yes! Here it is, in this version, we put _mcount
and ftrace_caller together, which means the address of _mcount and
ftrace_caller is the same:
_mcount:
ftrace_caller:
	j	ftrace_stub
	 nop
	...(do real tracing here)...
ftrace_stub:
	jr	ra
	 move	ra, at
By default, the kernel functions call _mcount, and then jump to ftrace_stub and
return. and when we want to do real tracing, we just need to remove that "j
ftrace_stub", and it will run through the two "nop" instructions and then do
the real tracing job.
what about filtering job? we just need to do this:
	 lui v1, hi_16bit_of_mcount        <--> b 1f (0x10000004)
	 addiu v1, v1, low_16bit_of_mcount
	 move at, ra
	 jalr v1
	 nop
	 				     1f: (rec->ip + 12)
In linux-mips64, there will be some local symbols, whose name are
prefixed by $L, which need to be filtered. thanks goes to Steven for
writing the mips64-specific function_regex.
In a conclusion, with RISC, things becomes easier with such a "stupid"
trick, RISC is something like K.I.S.S, and also, there are lots of
"simple" tricks in the whole ftrace support, thanks goes to Steven and
the other folks for providing such a wonderful tracing framework!
