We also have a _RET_IP_ macro that does the same and has a much more
useful name.  And given that we need the address as void pointer to
print it using our printk extension both seem a bit supoptimal.

Given that a lot of tracing code needs this a bit of standardization
would be useful - more important for the type to store the address than
just the macro name.
