Subject: [PATCH 5.15 06/14] Revert "x86/ftrace: Use alternative RET encoding"
Date: Fri, 19 Aug 2022 17:40:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220819153711.879328558@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220819153711.658766010@linuxfoundation.org>

From: Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo <cascardo@canonical.com>

This reverts commit e54fcb0812faebd147de72bd37ad87cc4951c68c.

This temporarily reverts the backport of upstream commit
1f001e9da6bbf482311e45e48f53c2bd2179e59c. It was not correct to copy the
ftrace stub as it would contain a relative jump to the return thunk which
would not apply to the context where it was being copied to, leading to
ftrace support to be broken.
