[PATCH v3] ftrace: Hide a extra entry in stack trace
From: Tatsuya S
Date: Wed Oct 02 2024 - 01:16:41 EST
A extra entry is shown on stack trace(CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC=y).
[003] ..... 110.171589: vfs_write <-__x64_sys_write
[003] ..... 110.171600: <stack trace>
=> XXXXXXXXX (Wrong function name)
=> vfs_write
=> ksys_write
=> do_syscall_64
=> entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe
To resolve this, increment skip for __ftrace_trace_stack() in
function_stack_trace_call().
The reason why skip is incremented for __ftrace_trace_stack()
is because __ftrace_trace_stack() in stack trace is the only function
that wasn't skipped from anywhere.

V2 -> V3: Changed the place to increment skip number
V1 -> V2: Fixed redundant code
