MIPS: Tracing: Reduce the overhead of dynamic Function Tracer
With the help of uasm this patch encodes the instructions of the dynamic function tracer in ftrace_dyn_arch_init() when initializing it. As a result we can remove the dynamic encoding of instructions in ftrace_make_nop()/call(), ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() and remove the macro jump_insn_encode() and at last this reduce the overhead of dynamic Function Tracer. This also is cleaner.
