Steven Rostedt (VMware) a8f0f9e499 ftrace: Check for null ret_stack on profile function graph entry function
There's a small race when function graph shutsdown and the calling of the
registered function graph entry callback. The callback must not reference
the task's ret_stack without first checking that it is not NULL. Note, when
a ret_stack is allocated for a task, it stays allocated until the task exits.
The problem here, is that function_graph is shutdown, and a new task was
created, which doesn't have its ret_stack allocated. But since some of the
functions are still being traced, the callbacks can still be called.

The normal function_graph code handles this, but starting with commit
8861dd303c ("ftrace: Access ret_stack->subtime only in the function
profiler") the profiler code references the ret_stack on function entry, but
doesn't check if it is NULL first.
