With -mprofile-kernel and ppc32, the function tracer is invoked before a
function sets up its own stackframe. This results in the traced function
not appearing in stack traces. Fix this by checking for ftrace entry and
including the traced function in the stack trace.

While I don't think we expect to see ftrace show up in the trace for a
non-running task, I think it is good to cover this scenario. I also
think it is ok to consider such traces to be reliable. But, I'm not sure
of the implications w.r.t livepatching.
