LoongArch: Set unwind stack type to unknown rather than set error flag

During unwinding, unwind_done() is used as an end condition. Normally it
unwind to the user stack and then set the stack type to unknown, which
is a normal exit. When something unexpected happens in unwind process
and we cannot unwind anymore, we should set the error flag, and also set
the stack type to unknown to indicate that the unwind process can not
continue. The error flag emphasizes that the unwind process produce an
unexpected error. There is no unexpected things when we unwind the PT_REGS
in the top of IRQ stack and find out that is an user mode PT_REGS. Thus,
we should not set error flag and just set stack type to unknown.

LoongArch: Check unwind_error() in arch_stack_walk()

We can see the following messages with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y on
LoongArch:

BUG: MAX_STACK_TRACE_ENTRIES too low!
turning off the locking correctness validator.

This is because stack_trace_save() returns a big value after call
arch_stack_walk(), here is the call trace:

save_trace()
stack_trace_save()
arch_stack_walk()
stack_trace_consume_entry()

arch_stack_walk() should return immediately if unwind_next_frame()
failed, no need to do the useless loops to increase the value of c->len
in stack_trace_consume_entry(), then we can fix the above problem.

LoongArch: Add generic ex-handler unwind in prologue unwinder

When exception is triggered, code flow go handle_\exception in some
cases. One of stackframe in this case as follows,

high -> +-------+
| REGS | <- a pt_regs
| |
| | <- ex trigger
| REGS | <- ex pt_regs <-+
| | |
| | |
low -> +-------+ ->unwind-+

When unwinder unwinds to handler_\exception it cannot go on prologue
analysis. Because it is an asynchronous code flow, we should get the
next frame PC from regs->csr_era rather than regs->regs[1]. At init time
we copy the handlers to eentry and also copy them to NUMA-affine memory
named pcpu_handlers if NUMA is enabled. Thus, unwinder cannot unwind
normally. To solve this, we try to give some hints in handler_\exception
and fixup unwinders in unwind_next_frame().

LoongArch: Strip guess unwinder out from prologue unwinder

The prolugue unwinder rely on symbol info. When PC is not in kernel text
address, it cannot find relative symbol info and it will be broken. The
guess unwinder will be used in this case. And the guess unwinder code in
prolugue unwinder is redundant. Strip it out and set the unwinder type
in unwind_state. Make guess_unwinder::unwind_next_frame() as default way
when other unwinders cannot unwind in some extreme case.

LoongArch: Use correct sp value to get graph addr in stack unwinders

The stack frame when function_graph enable like follows,

--------- <- function sp_on_entry
|
|
|
FAKE_RA <- sp_on_entry - sizeof(pt_regs) + PT_R1
|
--------- <- sp_on_entry - sizeof(pt_regs)

So if we want to get the &FAKE_RA we should get sp_on_entry first. In
the unwinder_prologue case, we can get the sp_on_entry as state->sp,
because we try to calculate each CFA and the ra saved address. But in
the unwinder_guess case, we cannot get it because we do not try to
calculate the CFA. Although LoongArch have not fixed frame, the $ra is
saved at CFA - 8 in most cases, we can try guess, too. As we store the
pc in state, we not need to dereference state->sp, too.

LoongArch: Get frame info in unwind_start() when regs is not available

At unwind_start(), it is better to get its frame info here rather than
get them outside, even we don't have 'regs'. In this way we can simply
use unwind_{start, next_frame, done} outside.

LoongArch: Adjust PC value when unwind next frame in unwinder

When state->first is not set, the PC is a return address in the previous
frame. We need to adjust its value in case overflow to the next symbol.

LoongArch/ftrace: Add HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RET_ADDR_PTR support

ftrace_graph_ret_addr() can be called by stack unwinding code to convert
a found stack return address ('ret') to its original value, in case the
function graph tracer has modified it to be 'return_to_handler'. If the
hasn't been modified, the unchanged value of 'ret' is returned.

LoongArch/ftrace: Add dynamic function tracer support

The compiler has inserted 2 NOPs before the regular function prologue.
T series registers are available and safe because of LoongArch's psABI.

At runtime, we can replace nop with bl to enable ftrace call and replace
bl with nop to disable ftrace call. The bl instruction requires us to
save the original RA value, so it saves RA at t0 here.

Details are:

| Compiled | Disabled | Enabled |
+------------+------------------------+------------------------+
| nop | move t0, ra | move t0, ra |
| nop | nop | bl ftrace_caller |
| func_body | func_body | func_body |

The RA value will be recovered by ftrace_regs_entry, and restored into
RA before returning to the regular function prologue. When a function is
not being traced, the "move t0, ra" is not harmful.

1) ftrace_make_call, ftrace_make_nop (in kernel/ftrace.c)
The two functions turn each recorded call site of filtered functions
into a call to ftrace_caller or nops.

2) ftracce_update_ftrace_func (in kernel/ftrace.c)
turns the nops at ftrace_call into a call to a generic entry for
function tracers.

3) ftrace_caller (in kernel/mcount_dyn.S)
The entry where each _mcount call sites calls to once they are
filtered to be traced.

LoongArch: Add prologue unwinder support

It unwind the stack frame based on prologue code analyze.
CONFIG_KALLSYMS is needed, at least the address and length
of each function.

Three stages when we do unwind,
1) unwind_start(), the prapare of unwinding, fill unwind_state.
2) unwind_done(), judge whether the unwind process is finished or not.
3) unwind_next_frame(), unwind the next frame.

Dividing unwinder helps to add new unwinders in the future, e.g.:
unwinder_frame, unwinder_orc, .etc.
