Commit 800618f955a9 ("arm64: ftrace: use function_nocfi for ftrace_call")
only fixed address of ftrace_call but address of _mcount needs to be
fixed as well. Use function_nocfi() to get the actual address of _mcount
function as with CONFIG_CFI_CLANG, the compiler replaces function pointers
with jump table addresses which breaks dynamic ftrace as the address of
_mcount is replaced with the address of _mcount.cfi_jt.

It might be worth noting that where the toolchain implements
patchable-function-entry, we'll use that in preference to regular -pg,
and this problem won't apply. i.e. this won't show with recent versions
of clang.

This probably wants:

Fixes: 9186ad8e66bab6a1 ("arm64: allow CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to be selected")

With that:
