When function graph tracing is enabled for a function, its return address on the stack is replaced with the address of an ftrace handler (return_to_handler). Currently 'return_to_handler' can be reported as reliable. That's not ideal, and can actually be misleading. When saving or dumping the stack, you normally only care about what led up to that point (the call path), rather than what will happen in the future (the return path). That's especially true in the non-oops stack trace case, which isn't used for debugging. For example, in a perf profiling operation, reporting return_to_handler() in the trace would just be confusing. And in the oops case, where debugging is important, "unreliable" is also more appropriate there because it serves as a hint that graph tracing was involved, instead of trying to imply that return_to_handler() was the real caller.
