I have tested my patch on your branches.

For the ftrace one it works properly and passed FTRACE_STARTUP_TEST.

For the entry one I proposed some advice in another reply, with that my
patch also works well.


I'll post v2 patch which is totally dependent to yours. And after your
patch applied, the stacktrace

may need to be updated again, for example, print the type of current
unwinding stack.


Best,

Chen
