Given a function, get_frame_info() analyzes its instructions
to figure out frame size and return address. get_frame_info()
works as follows:
1. analyze up to 128 instructions if the function size is unknown
2. search for 'addiu/daddiu sp,sp,-immed' for frame size
3. search for 'sw ra,offset(sp)' for return address
4. end search when it sees jr/jal/jalr
This leads to an issue when the given function is a sibling
call, example shown as follows.
801ca110 <schedule>:
801ca110: 8f820000 lw v0,0(gp)
801ca114: 8c420000 lw v0,0(v0)
801ca118: 080726f0 j 801c9bc0 <__schedule>
801ca11c: 00000000 nop
801ca120 <io_schedule>:
801ca120: 27bdffe8 addiu sp,sp,-24
801ca124: 3c028022 lui v0,0x8022
801ca128: afbf0014 sw ra,20(sp)
In this case, get_frame_info() cannot properly detect schedule's
frame info, and eventually returns io_schedule's instead.
This patch adds 'j' to the end search condition to workaround
sibling call cases.
