[PATCH 0/6] Support ftrace on NDS32 architecture

[Zong Li <zong@andestech.com>]

This patch set implements the ftrace function and function graph tracer
on NDS32 architecture. We try to use C code to do everything, so we don't
need to separate the implementation to assembly code and C code, we just
need one ftrace.c file.

In mcount function, we use the prologue/epilogue which generated by compiler
to help us to save/restore the status. On the other hand, we use naked
attribute of gcc to avoid to generate the prologue/epilogue when we don't
need it(such as ftrace_stub and return_to_handler).

We pass the following tests:

1. FTRACE_STARTUP_TEST: PASS

2. tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/:
 # of passed:  28
 # of failed:  1
 # of unresolved:  0
 # of untested:  0
 # of unsupported:  38
 # of xfailed:  0
 # of undefined(test bug):  0

The failed case is func-filter-glob.tc.
When setting the '*aw*lock' to the set_ftrace_filter in this test case,
we got the error because we have no these functions such as _raw_spin_lock,
_raw_spin_trylock and so on in our kernel.
