We generally like to have as few #ifdef as possible, and I think the
#ifdef CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER here is not needed.

Same here. It never hurts to have the CFLAGS_REMOVE_* statements here, since
you will not want to build these files for profiling.

This one is clearly needed of course.

Unrelated to your patch, I have run into problems with this on arm32, maybe
someone on Cc to this mail has an idea what to do about it:

If I build a large "randconfig" kernel or "allyesconfig", the kernel image
size exceeds 32MB, which means I can no longer link callers with a 26
bit signed immediate argument like the "bl _mcount" here. For any other
function calls, "gcc -mlong-calls" can be used to work around this, but
this particular instance is created by inserting assembly statements
into the output without considering the long-call options. Is there
a way to get the kernel to link anyway?

Here, again, you an remove the #ifdef by making the entire file built
only for CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER.
