Ftrace location could include more than a single instruction in case of some architectures (powerpc64, for now). In this case, kprobe is permitted on any of those instructions, and uses ftrace infrastructure for functioning.
However, [dis]arm_kprobe_ftrace() uses the kprobe address when setting up ftrace filter IP. This won't work if the address points to any instruction apart from the one that has a branch to _mcount(). To resolve this, have [dis]arm_kprobe_ftrace() use ftrace_function() to identify the filter IP. Signed-off-by: Naveen N.
