clang 14 won't build because ret is uninitialised and can be returned if
both prop and fdtprop are NULL. Drop the ret variable and return an
error in that failure case.

Hi Sathvika,
I love your patch! Yet something to improve:

Extend commit b39181f7c6907d ("ftrace: Add FTRACE_MCOUNT_MAX_OFFSET to
avoid adding weak function") to ppc32 and ppc64 -mprofile-kernel by

For ppc64 -mprofile-kernel ABI, we can have two instructions at function

CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS, rather than the elf ABI version.
