powerpc/ftrace: Fix dropping weak symbols with older toolchains
commit f6834c8c upstream. The minimum level of gcc supported for building the kernel is v5.1. v5.x releases of gcc emitted a three instruction sequence for -mprofile-kernel: mflr r0 std r0, 16(r1) bl _mcount It is only with the v6.x releases that gcc started emitting the two instruction sequence for -mprofile-kernel, omitting the second store instruction. With the older three instruction sequence, the actual ftrace location can be the 5th instruction into a function. Update the allowed offset for ftrace location from 12 to 16 to accommodate the same.
