Commit Message

The system currently warns if the config conditions for
building return_address in arch/arm/kernel/return_address.c
are not met, leaving just an EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(return_address)
of a function defined to be 'static linline'.
This is a result of aeea3592a13b ("ARM: 8158/1: LLVMLinux: use static inline in ARM ftrace.h").

Since we're not going to build anything other than an exported
symbol for something that is already being defined to be an
inline-able return of NULL, just avoid building the code to
remove the following warning:

Fixes: aeea3592a13b ("ARM: 8158/1: LLVMLinux: use static inline in ARM ftrace.h")

Makes sense.
