I get this:

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY
Depends on [n]: TRACING_SUPPORT [=y] && FTRACE [=y] && FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD [=n]
Selected by [y]:
- PARISC [=y] && HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE [=y]

when trying to build parisc:defconfig.

I think it should be

select FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY if DYNAMIC_FTRACE

(no HAVE_)
