  [PATCH 1/6] ftrace/x86_64: Rename mcount_64.S to ftrace_64.S Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> - 2017-03-22 02:40 +0100

#1606129 — [PATCH 1/6] ftrace/x86_64: Rename mcount_64.S to ftrace_64.S

From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

With the advent of -mfentry that uses the new "fentry" hook over mcount, the
mcount name is obsolete. Having the code file that ftrace hooks into called
"mcount*.S" is rather misleading. Rename it to ftrace_64.S
