[PATCH v4 05/15] tracepoint: Exclude tp_stub_func from CFI checking
From: Sami Tolvanen
Date: Thu Sep 30 2021 - 14:05:55 EST
If allocate_probes fails, func_remove replaces the old function
with a pointer to tp_stub_func, which is called using a mismatching
function pointer that will always trip indirect call checks with
CONFIG_CFI_CLANG. Use DEFINE_CFI_IMMEDATE_RETURN_STUB to define
tp_stub_func to allow it to pass CFI checking.
