arg0 should be an offset of the return point within the function, arg1
should be the return value. Previously the return probe had arguments as
if for the entry probe.
Tested on armv7.
andrew noted that the same problem seems to be present on arm64, mips,
and riscv.
I am not sure if I will get around to fixing those. So, platform users
or anyone looking to make a contribution please be aware of this
opportunity.

With GNU ifuncs, multiple FBT probes may correspond to the same
instruction. fbt_invop() assumed that this could not happen and
would return after the first probe found in the global FBT hash
table, which might not be the one that's enabled. Fix the problem
on x86 by linking probes that share a tracepoint and having each
linked probe fire when the tracepoint is hit.

the fifth argument to functions being traced, however there was an error
where the userspace stack was being used. This may be invalid leading to
a kernel panic if this address is unmapped.

This restriction was inherited from upstream but is not relevant on FreeBSD.
Furthermore, it hindered the tracing of locking primitive subroutines.

Currently this argument is a pointer into the stack which is used by FBT
to fetch the first five probe arguments. On all non-x86 architectures it's
simply the trapframe address, so this change has no functional impact. On
amd64 it's a pointer into the trapframe such that stack[1 .. 5] gives the
first five argument registers, which are deliberately grouped together in
the amd64 trapframe definition.
A trapframe argument simplifies the invop handlers on !x86 and makes the
x86 FBT invop handler easier to understand. Moreover, it allows for invop
handlers that may want to modify the register set of the interrupted thread.
first instruction to see if it's either a pushm with lr, or a sub with sp.
The former is the common case, with the latter used with va_args.
This removes 12 probes. These are all hand-written assembly, with a few C
functions with no stack usage.

emulate the instructions used in function entry and exit.
For function entry ARM will use a push instruction to push up to 16
registers to the stack. While we don't expect all 16 to be used we need to
handle any combination the compiler may generate, even if it doesn't make
sense (e.g. pushing the program counter).
On function return we will either have a pop or branch instruction. The
former is similar to the push instruction, but with care to make sure we
update the stack pointer and program counter correctly in the cases they
are either in the list of registers or not. For branch we need to take the
24-bit offset, sign-extend it, and add that number of 4-byte words to the
program counter. Care needs to be taken as, due to historical reasons, the
address the branch is relative to is not the current instruction, but 8
bytes later.
This allows us to use the following probes on ARM boards:
dtrace -n 'fbt::malloc:entry { stack() }'
and
dtrace -n 'fbt:🆓return { stack() }'
