[RFC PATCH 4/7] ftrace: Add swap_func to ftrace_process_locs()

From: Mike Rapoport
Date: Thu Apr 11 2024 - 14:10:11 EST


From: Song Liu <song@xxxxxxxxxx>

ftrace_process_locs sorts module mcount, which is inside RO memory. Add a
ftrace_swap_func so that archs can use RO-memory-poke function to do the
sorting.
