sh: Mark __switch_to() as __notrace_funcgraph
Annotate __switch_to() so that the function graph tracer does not try to
trace it. Use __notrace_funcgraph, as opposed to notrace, so that other
tracers can continue to trace __switch_to().
The reason that we don't want to trace __switch_to() with the function
graph tracer is because of how the return address stack in task_struct
is implemented. When we enter __switch_to we store the real return
address on prev's ret_stack. When we return from __switch_to() we've
patched the return address on the kernel stack to be
return_to_handler. Calling return_to_handler we do,
-> ftrace_return_to_handler()
-> ftrace_pop_return_ftrace()
Which tries to pop the real return address from current->ret_stack. The
problem being that we stored the return address on prev->ret_stack, but
current now points to next, and next->ret_stack doesn't contain the
correct return address (and is possibly even empty).
