The commit d4815c5d1bbd ("function_graph: Support recording and printing
the return value of function") laid the groundwork for the for the
funcgraph-retval, and this modification makes it available on the
ARM platform.

We introduce a new structure called fgraph_ret_regs for the ARM platform
to hold return registers and the frame pointer. We then fill its content
in the return_to_handler and pass its address to the function
ftrace_return_to_handler to record the return value.

1) EABI wants the stack to be aligned to 8 bytes.
2) We can do better than this.

mov ip, sp
stmdb sp!, {r0-r3, ip, lr}
mov r0, sp

Great, I will modify it.


bl ftrace_return_to_handler
mov lr, r0 @ r0 has real ret addr

ldmia sp, {r0-r3} @ since we need to manually adjust sp,

Thanks, I will modify it.

add sp, sp, #4 * 6 @ restore stack pointer here

Thanks, I will modify it.
