powerpc/kprobes: Add support for KPROBES_ON_FTRACE
Allow kprobes to be placed on ftrace _mcount() call sites. This optimization avoids the use of a trap, by riding on ftrace infrastructure. This depends on HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS which depends on MPROFILE_KERNEL, which is only currently enabled on powerpc64le with newer toolchains. Based on the x86 code by Masami.
