[PATCH 2/2] tracing/function-return-tracer: Call prepare_ftrace_return by registers

[Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>]

Impact: Optimize a bit the function return tracer

This patch changes the calling convention of prepare_ftrace_return
to pass its arguments by register. This will optimize it a bit and
prepare it to support dynamic tracing.
