MIPS: Fix sibling call handling in get_frame_info
Given a function, get_frame_info() analyzes its instructions to figure out frame size and return address. get_frame_info() works as follows: 1. analyze up to 128 instructions if the function size is unknown 2. search for 'addiu/daddiu sp,sp,-immed' for frame size 3. search for 'sw ra,offset(sp)' for return address 4. end search when it sees jr/jal/jalr This leads to an issue when the given function is a sibling call, example shown as follows. 801ca110 <schedule>: 801ca110: 8f820000 lw v0,0(gp) 801ca114: 8c420000 lw v0,0(v0) 801ca118: 080726f0 j 801c9bc0 <__schedule> 801ca11c: 00000000 nop 801ca120 <io_schedule>: 801ca120: 27bdffe8 addiu sp,sp,-24 801ca124: 3c028022 lui v0,0x8022 801ca128: afbf0014 sw ra,20(sp) In this case, get_frame_info() cannot properly detect schedule's frame info, and eventually returns io_schedule's instead. This patch adds 'j' to the end search condition to workaround sibling call cases.
