    This patch adds support for kprobes on ftrace call sites to avoids
    much of the overhead with regular kprobes. Try it with simple
    steps:
    
     echo 'p:myprobe sys_clone a0=%a0 a1=%a1 stack_val=+4($stack)' > /sys/kernel/de
    bug/tracing/kprobe_events
     echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kprobes/enable
     cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
     tracer: nop
    
     entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 1/1   #P:1
