For those leaf functions, they are likely to have no stack operations.
Add is_jr_ra_ins() to determine whether jr ra has been touched before
the frame_size is found. Without this patch, the get frame_size operation
may be out of range and get the frame_size from the next nested function.

  Without looking into it much, this is likely missing the point, because
while technically inteed JR and JR16 can be used with $ra in microMIPS
machine code (there's JRS too), in reality either JRC or JRADDIUSP will.

You are right, I missed the point. I have refered to microMIPS64
Instruction Set. JRC and JRADDIUSP also can be used with $ra in
microMIPS. I am not sure what compiler do at epilogue. But when
we call $ra without saving $ra, it means return, I think.
I will fix it later.

Thanks,
Jinyang.
