[PATCH] ftrace/ARM: add ARM support for C version of recordmcount

From: Rabin Vincent
Date: Mon Nov 22 2010 - 13:12:59 EST


Depending on the compiler version, ARM GCC calls the mcount function
either __gnu_mcount_nc or mcount.

Also, arch/arm/kernel/ftrace.c references mcount like
kernel/tracing/ftrace.c, so change the exclusion filter to match any
ftrace.c
