Subject: [PATCH] arm64: Mark start_backtrace() notrace and NOKPROBE_SYMBOL

Mark the start_backtrace() as notrace and NOKPROBE_SYMBOL
because this function is called from ftrace and lockdep to
get the caller address via return_address(). The lockdep
is used in kprobes, it should also be NOKPROBE_SYMBOL.
