No, it just cleans up this utter trainwreck. I also noticed this is a
second (new) copy of this garbage. Clearly I didn't yell loud enough
last time and people didn't think to vomit when doing the copy/paste :/

Function will look something like:

unsigned long arch_ftrace_get_symaddr(unsigned long fentry_ip)
{
	if (is_endbr(fentry_ip - ENDBR_INSN_SIZE))
		fentry_op -= ENDBR_INSN_SIZE;
	return fentry_ip;
}

Let me finish local build test before I push out.
