Yeah, you mentioned systemtap, but since that's out-of-tree I don't
care. Their problem.

When would you do the alloc? When installing the retprobe, but that
might be inside the allocator, which means you can't call the allocator
etc.. :-)

If we look at struct ftrace_ret_stack, it has a few fixed function
fields. The calltime one is all that is needed for the kretprobe
example code.
