In -mprofile-kernel variant of ftrace_graph_caller(), we save the
optionally-updated LR address into the stack save area at the end. This
is likely an offshoot of the initial -mprofile-kernel implementation in
gcc emitting the same as part of the -mprofile-kernel instruction
sequence. However, this is not required. Drop it.
