[ Upstream commit fae4078c289a2f24229c0de652249948b1cd6bdb ]
The ret_stack_list is an array of ret_stack shadow stacks for the function graph usage. When the first function graph is enabled, all tasks in the system get a shadow stack. The ret_stack_list is a 32 element array of pointers to these shadow stacks. It allocates the shadow stack in batches (32 stacks at a time), assigns them to running tasks, and continues until all tasks are covered.
When the function graph shadow stack changed from an array of ftrace_ret_stack structures to an array of longs, the allocation of ret_stack_list went from allocating an array of 32 elements to just a block defined by SHADOW_STACK_SIZE. Luckily, that's defined as PAGE_SIZE and is much more than enough to hold 32 pointers. But it is way overkill for the amount needed to allocate.
Change the allocation of ret_stack_list back to a kcalloc() of FTRACE_RETSTACK_ALLOC_SIZE pointers.
