No, it's probably my fault. The ftrace infrastructure is going through
an overhaul and some dramatic changes are happening. Although it has
passed all my tests, I can't cover everyone's configs and use cases.

Please send me your config and the steps you did to enable function
profiling. This is x86 correct? Other archs are already known to be
broken and I'm working on fixing them now.
