3.16.83-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Alex Sverdlin alexander.sverdlin@nokia.com
commit 927d780ee371d7e121cea4fc7812f6ef2cea461c upstream.
Scenario 1, ARMv7 =================
If code in arch/arm/kernel/ftrace.c would operate on mcount() pointer the following may be generated:
00000230 <prealloc_fixed_plts>: 230: b5f8 push {r3, r4, r5, r6, r7, lr} 232: b500 push {lr} 234: f7ff fffe bl 0 <__gnu_mcount_nc> 234: R_ARM_THM_CALL __gnu_mcount_nc 238: f240 0600 movw r6, #0 238: R_ARM_THM_MOVW_ABS_NC __gnu_mcount_nc 23c: f8d0 1180 ldr.w r1, [r0, #384] ; 0x180
FTRACE currently is not able to deal with it:

The analysis for this problem has been already performed previously, refer to the link below.
Fix the above problems by allowing only selected reloc types in __mcount_loc. The list itself comes from the legacy recordmcount.pl script.
