4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Matthias Schiffer <mschif...@universe-factory.net> commit 6fb8656646f996d1eef42e6d56203c4915cb9e08 upstream. ftrace_graph_caller was never run after calling ftrace_trace_function, breaking the function graph tracer. Fix this, bringing it in line with the x86 implementation. While we're at it, also streamline the control flow of _mcount a bit to reduce the number of branches.
