Christophe Leroy 88670fdb26 powerpc/ftrace: No need to read LR from stack in _mcount()
All functions calling _mcount do it exactly the same way, with the
following sequence of instructions:

	c07de788:       7c 08 02 a6     mflr    r0
	c07de78c:       90 01 00 04     stw     r0,4(r1)
	c07de790:       4b 84 13 65     bl      c001faf4 <_mcount>

Allthough LR is pushed on stack, it is still in r0 while entering
_mcount().

Function arguments are in r3-r10, so r11 and r12 are still available
at that point.

Do like PPC64 and use r12 to move LR into CTR, so that r0 is preserved
and doesn't need to be restored from the stack.

While at it, bring back the EXPORT_SYMBOL at the end of _mcount.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
