485acd207d7daf8cf941a5f0fd0c09bc6d049402 ftrace: Do not have print_graph_retval() add a newline
The retval and retaddr options for function_graph tracer will add a
comment at the end of a function for both leaf and non leaf functions that
looks like:
__wake_up_common(); /* ret=0x1 */
} /* pick_next_task_fair ret=0x0 */
The function print_graph_retval() adds a newline after the "*/". But if
that's not called, the caller function needs to make sure there's a
newline added.
This is confusing and when the function parameters code was added, it
added a newline even when calling print_graph_retval() as the fact that
the print_graph_retval() function prints a newline isn't obvious.
This caused an extra newline to be printed and that made it fail the
selftests when the retval option was set, as the selftests were not
expecting blank lines being injected into the trace.
Instead of having print_graph_retval() print a newline, just have the
caller always print the newline regardless if it calls print_graph_retval()
or not. This not only fixes this bug, but it also simplifies the code.
