x86/ibt,ftrace: Make function-graph play nice
Return trampoline must not use indirect branch to return; while this preserves the RSB, it is fundamentally incompatible with IBT. Instead use a retpoline like ROP gadget that defeats IBT while not unbalancing the RSB. And since ftrace_stub is no longer a plain RET, don't use it to copy from. Since RET is a trivial instruction, poke it directly.
