[PATCH 1/2] MIPS: ftrace.h: Fix the MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE definition

From: Markos Chandras
Date: Mon Sep 22 2014 - 09:33:35 EST


The MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE is meant to be used to denote the overall
size of the mcount() call. Since a jal instruction is used to
call mcount() the delay slot should be taken into consideration
as well.
This also replaces the MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE usage with the real size
of a single MIPS instruction since, as described above, the
MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE is used to denote the total overhead of the
mcount() call.
