I just want to avoid yet another implementation of the underlying mechanism. For DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS we can mess with the LR before pauth or SCS sees it, so those definitely work. If KRETPROBES works by messing with the LR at the instnat the function is entered, that should work similarly. If it works by replacing the RET it should also work out since any pauth/SCS work will have been undone by that point. If it attempts to mess with the return address in the middle of a function then it's not reliable today.
