Adrian Hunter 1f35cd6538 perf thread-stack: Improve thread_stack__no_call_return()
Improve thread_stack__no_call_return() to better handle 'returns' that
do not match the stack i.e. 'no call'. See code comments for details.
The example below shows how retpolines are affected:

Example:

  $ cat simple-retpoline.c
  __attribute__((noinline)) int bar(void)
  {
          return -1;
  }

  int foo(void)
  {
          return bar() + 1;
  }

  __attribute__((indirect_branch("thunk"))) int main()
  {
          int (*volatile fn)(void) = foo;

          fn();
          return fn();
  }
  $ gcc -ggdb3 -Wall -Wextra -O2 -o simple-retpoline simple-retpoline.c
  $ objdump -d simple-retpoline

Before:

    main
        -> __x86_indirect_thunk_rax
            -> __x86_indirect_thunk_rax
                -> __x86_indirect_thunk_rax
                    -> bar

After:

    main
        -> __x86_indirect_thunk_rax
            -> __x86_indirect_thunk_rax
                -> foo
                    -> bar

Committer testing:

Chose "Reports", Then "Context-Sensitive Call Graph" and then go on
expanding:

Before:

simple-retpolin
   PID:PID
      _start
         _start
            __libc_start_main
               main
                   __x86_indirect_thunk_rax
                      __x86_indirect_thunk_rax
                      bar

After:

Remove the "simple.retpoline.db" file, run again the 'perf script' line
to regenerate the .db file and run the exported-sql-viewer.py again to
get the same all the way to 'main', then, from there, including 'main':

               main
                   __x86_indirect_thunk_rax
                       __x86_indirect_thunk_rax
                           foo
                               bar
