[PATCH v2 09/13] powerpc/ftrace: Implement CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS

Implement CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS. It accelerates the call
of livepatching.

Also note that powerpc being the last one to convert to
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, it will now be possible to remove
klp_arch_set_pc() on all architectures.
