I don't think that's the case. My reading of current
trace_kprobe_ftrace() -> arch_check_ftrace_location()
is that it will not be true for old mcount case.

As far as the rest of your arguments it very much puzzles me that
you claim that this patch suppose to work based on historical
reasoning whereas you did NOT test it.
